I hear you, but the experience is and should be relative to what you give. It takes all of us, between the $100 donors to the people who have their names on buildings. The ones that give more, will get more. I won't be attending, but I'm happy they are organizing exclusive events like this. Great job by all involved!NewApp wrote:Sure is, but it leaves the common middle income man out.Rekdiver wrote:It's a good thing to have high rollers isn't it??

I'm happy that successful people want to help make App a better place. I'll find my spot.

You're jumping to conclusions big time. I never implied anything like that and I'm not jealous in the least. I just wish there more of these things with even higher charges. However, it would be nice if there were something in Holmes for say, like $100 a seat with the video screens being used.

Never meant anything to the contrary. I have certainly done my part over the last 50 years.
