WOW!  I'm really shocked at the statement:
 
ADV testing RECOMMENDED, but NOT required.
 
If an organization like the AFA isn't taking ADV precautions seriously -
why should the rest of us?  I was planning on attending the AFA show in
Oregon this summer, but now I am going to seriously rethink my trip.  I am
also really disappointed that such high caliber persons are participating
in a function and not requiring (demanding?) ADV testing be mandatory.
