Thanks to all for a great OCIC 2009. It was so good to meet people and to interact with the 928 Rennlist celebrity. Got home to Kauai late last night and I'm still a biut jet lagged but nothing like Steve, Jon and Rhonda will be when they get back to Australia.
Really fantastic to see so many fine examples of the car. Lots of car envy for me and makes me even more excited to one day drive my own car.
I really had a fantastic time and once again I will remind all that should your travels bring you to Kauai, please let me know. I'd be happy to meet up with you.

OK, now you can view most (I removed most of the embarrassingly crappy ones) of the photos I took at:
http://picasaweb.google.com/EdJScher...eat=directlink
I might do a little more touch-up on them later, but this'll do for now.
If anyone wants any of the original RAW files or larger size JPEGs (PicasaWeb versions definitely aren't as nice as the originals), just PM me. The originals are 21 Mpixel (~ 30 MiB) monsters
, so I probably don't want to be e-mailing too many of them, though. 
Some of my favorites follow.

There isn't much more I can say that hasn't already been said. Wonderful time, wonderful cars, but even MORE WONDERFUL are the people I got to re-connect with from the Denver meet, SITM, Frenzy, etc., and equally WONDERFUL was meeting and getting acquainted with the people I've not had the privilege of meeting and sharing time with before. It was sad that Dave and Jeannie weren't able to make it, as we missed them, along with a few others I was hoping to meet/re-connect with, but were unable to come (e.g. BIGS, Heinrich, et al). My wife Kitty had a great time seeing people she'd met at Denver OCIC, as well as those she has heard me talk about over the past 6-7 years.
How can I express the wonderful connections that have been made as a result of the "Porsche for the Dentists wife" (according to the 911 aficionados), but referred to as the "Greatest Car ever Built" in the Porsche Museum, and the Internet. Without those two entities, very few of us who are now FRIENDS would ever have met each other.
MUCHO thanks to Roger, Jim, Sean, and all the Texas gang who did a great job of bringing us together in tough times, and making us all glad we came to Dallas. Thanks, of course, to John Curry who so generously allowed David Kelly and me to drive his car on the Sunday outing.
Those who didn't get there, keep on the lookout for OCIC Five. Three years is just around the corner, wonder who will accept the awesome responsiblity of hosting (and where) in 2012?
Best wishes to all,
Gary Knox (and Kitty).

Does anyone else find themselves looking through the photo's to see if they can find themselves or their cars? 
I've happily found myself and my car several times

Wheel warp
Yup I have been looking at tons of great pics, very cool. Thanks David, Ed and all, I have camera envy...
There were lots of cool pictures taken of the Zyclamrot Metallic 90 S4 (Cyclamen Red Metallic) but you can see in this one that Teri warps wheels! Forget the Flux Capacitor and move past Dylithium Crystals, here she comes! Yes there are five spokes but have you even been able to see the WHOLE caliper before???
