No stage fright, Harry!

Remember, you're supposed to imagine the audience
eating mangos naked.....

While envisioning the suggested mental image may cure stage fright, I shudder to think what other fears may be created with such imagery.  I mean, look, those folks out there are nice people....but naked, no thanks.  I am going to have to cure my stage fright by thinking of something else entirely. ;)

Yes me too! Can we PLEASE get a regular person in charge of video taping, somebody with a steady hand, and some funds for video equipment? Would be awesome to have a video section in this forum. We already have an awesome library!

Excellent! Is there anyone willing to donate some video equipment or time so we can catch Harry in the act?  ;)

Thanks Harry!  I really enjoyed the lecture.   ;D  It was very informative for me.  Your Maha Chanok northwest seedling was the best on the tasting table.  You can claim not to be a mango expert all day long but we all know otherwise.  8)

Great lecture, Harry. The practical experience tidbits were particularly helpful, and the history behind your trees was fascinating.
