As muslims say about La Meca (Saudi Arabia)....I want to go Tucson at least once in a life!!
Don't worry...some year I will be able to be there, and then, Tucson Show will become a Spanish style of meeting point for all the minerals collectors around the world :(

Wait for me...I promise to go next time :) Now money is a problem for me...tomorrow I'm sure will buy all Tucson wonders....SURE!!

The best thing about this forum is the diversity of people who contribute. I'd rather spend the £1000's that it'd cost me to go to tucson on field collecting stuff from my own country. I do like seeing the eye candy though.

Well, sorry for not posting much lately, I am mentally and physically in a state of tiredness I didn't know existed! But on, what fun this all is! I had to skip a social evening last night, to catch up on sleep only to find myself up at four a.m. so here I am, at almost 5 a.m. posting.
