Sure it did piss us off a bit, but if our shop is still "in progress" it's not really because of that

great If I lived there in europe, including family and the small shop my dad has... the copyright wouldn't be a problem...mmm, but only in my country. My country is #3 in the world with non-official, "pirate", bootleg stuff (some kinda proud )
If existed a cheap and economical way to ship t-shirts from mex to england, I'd gladly print the tshirts. Making some numbers in the air, a printed tshirt with 4 colors (normal ..serigraphy??) would cost between 3 and 3.5 usdollars. But the shipping would increase too much the cost of the whole package.

I have a different thought...instead of making JW identifying marks or t-shirts or something like that, we could organize get-togethers in certain places during certain times of the year...for instance, in Detroit we could arrange a specific night and a specific meeting place at a specific time for the NAIAS, that way a bunch of JW members could meet, greet and then have a little fun at the show together, kind of like dani_d_mas did this year at Geneva.

The Gumball idea isn't bad, the only issue is that a lot of us are just poor college students and couldn't afford the ticket cost if we got nabbed by the police...maybe we could do some autocross events or something of the like instead?

I am really for this idea to have JW stuffs.

However, the idea of a JW big meet is not bad... but here there are a lot of people from all over the World. We could plane something as the Gumball 3000: one year in Europe (at the Ferrari Dealership in Lausanne for instance ) and one year in the US.
I vote for that dani_d_mas !

Hey guys from Europe, you would must rented the conference room of Porsche at Leipzig. If you done it I will be present there, it's sure to 100%.

Here the room that I speak:

^^^^^^And where would something like this take place....here or there....would there be a lot of ppl that can come(work, vacation,etc...)

Seems to me its not possible, eventhough I think I would take part.
