I would like to thank you for all the efforts of those who
enabled the "streaming" and recording of GA this year.
I just finished listening to the sermon from Sunday, and the
presentation by Elaine Pagels.
Both have inspired me to greater committment to my spiritual path. It is
through the UU movement (many years ago) that I discovered the
foundation from which to begin my search and that community sustains me
still as I explore the path I have chosen to follow. Thank you for
what you do to keep this faith alive and growing and inspiring to many.
Sincerely,
Karen
"I become very ill, missed most of GA while I was there, and went home early. I was soooo disappointed, until I realized I'm able to watch through technology. I can't tell you how much this means to me! Thank you!!!"

"Thank you all for allowing me to feel (almost) like I was there! As a seasoned GA attendee, I did not miss the stress of packing and traveling and spending money I don't have, and having to choose between too many workshops. I did miss sharing meals with old friends and meeting with colleagues, and waving my voting card during plenary, so I will do all I can to get to St. Louis next year.
You gave me the best seat in the house for key events in Ft. Worth , and I extend to all of you my deepest gratitude. My thoughts are with you as you pack up and return home. "

"I just wanted to say hello to you all and to let you know that we are watching the Service of the Living Tradition live from a DSL connection in our home in Adelaide, Australia, at noon local time. The stream is just perfect. Flawless audio and video synch. No pauses or jumps. Excellent camera work. Very good audio.
Thanks for the hard work and long hours you all have put in to make this possible. I do hope and trust that it is still a labor of love for you all."

"THANK YOU! The ability to watch the GA with streaming audio/video is such a great
way to feel I am participating! Thanks so much."

"After watching Pete Seeger and all the other musicians, it's easy to believe that anyone with a web connection can magically transport themselves to Fort Worth. The quality of the televised images is outstanding, and the resolution holds up even when viewed in "full screen" mode.
Congrats Deb... Dick ... Fred ... and all the rest of the GA Web Staff. I had a great evening tonight watching the banner parade, listening to the opening plenary, and especially hearing much of the music."

"My daughter and I listened to the GA's Opening session tonight live online.It was very good! We've never heard a real, live UU meeting before. My daughter especially liked to hear "Lean On Me" and was thrilled that it was a "congregational song."

"We are a group of 12+ UU's attending "GA AWAY" conference in Saco Maine . Thanks to the magic of your technology, we've enjoyed the opening ceremonies, Plenary III (Live) and expect a large crowd for a delayed broadcast of Pete Seger later this afternoon.
We greatly appreciate your efforts at providing access to GA for those of use in remote locations."
and later the next day...
"We just watched a replay of Pete Seeger and friends…we had 22 people and several stayed after the end and had me play it a 2 nd time! AMAZING. Again, thanks so much for all the work you and your team are doing to make this available."

"That is absolutely fantastic ... thanks to you and everyone involved for an exceptional job!"
