Has anyone here noticed that the ONLY people to have seen this course are either (a) guys who worked on the construction of it, or (b) panelists or heads of panels?

I don't fit either category........

No, just a tour late one afternoon.  I had connections from my client down the street and did know the GM from many years ago.  Both helped.

Yeah I tried to play the panelist card, photographer card etc. All to no avail.


Trying to play one last connection through someone I've done business with in China - but that's a long shot at best.

How would you pronounce "Shanquin"?  Like "hoselrocketin"?  Unfortunate if so.

"Shank-in Bay" That is how the old super used to pronounce it, but more so because it was funny!
