Dear All,
Here in Sicily we all agree that the Conference was one of the greatest
event of EBMers life-time.
This is due only to your partecipation, interest, knowledge, kindness and
open to different mentality, weather, culture, behaviour.
We hope to host, as promised, the Conference in 2005.
We are ready and you?
But next time, please, one week before the Conference we suggest to go on
a very low calories diet (in this occasion your diet was – I hope - only
post Conference)
Arrivederci a presto
Nino
together with
Annamaria, Daniela, Carolina, Bruna, Alessandra, Gianluca
I want to congratulate the conference
sponsors for hosting such a terrific event. The educational/professional
content was excellent and the social program was amazing (quite tightly
packed, however). In particular, I want to single out AnnaMaria and her
staff for handing everything so beautifully.I certainly look forward to
the next conference. Many thanks for a wonderful time in Sicily.
Dr. Madelon Finkel
Hello Nino, just a quick email to say thank you for the
wonderful experience of Sicilian hospitality. The conference was a
wonderful oppertunity to share knowledge, and the social content was
'magnifico'...such excellent food and wine.
Hopefully we will manage to meet at the 3rd annual conference, and once
again thanks to you, the steering group, Annamaria, and all the
organisation team for your kindness.
Anne 'O Sullivan
Greeting.I have informed Dr Gharib about our meeting in
Italy. He echoes my thought about your magnificance. Please convey my
regards to Mrs. Cartabellota. Best wishes and thanks for everything.
Amit K Ghosh
Dear Nino!
I am very happy to have attended this conference. It was of great value to
me and I will certainly try my very best to attend in 2005.
Arrivederci, Vi ses!
Ulf Eriksson
Hi Nino,
I want to thank you and Josi for the warm hospitality and cosy athmosphere
you provided. Your team met "German" standards of perfectionism and we, my
team and I, want to thank all of you for this excellent meeting you
organized. We tried to see how the attendees accepted the plenaries and
the short presentations as well as the poster sessions. Our feeling is
that we shall provide more room for discussion in small groups and reduce
the time in plenaries. Of course we are glad to have the opportunity of
organize an internationl conference but also like the idea very much that
the subsequent meeting, 2005, will be in Sicily again. Thanks indeed for
all your efforts and the great success you managed for us.
Yours
Franz Porszolt, Christel Weiss, Aziz Awa and Horst Kunhard
Nino,
It was wonderful! I met some great people, and I have already been in
touch with some of them. Your country is beautiful--and your food is
extraordinary. Thanks so very much. The conference was topnotch.
Nancy Spectory
Hi Nino,
I just agree to what all other participants already said about the
organisation of the EBHC-conference. It was a great success and I believe
this conference will remind us to give our best whenever we want to
organize such an event.
Please let us know as soon as you present the results of your photografic
work as well. I am excited to see known faces and surroundings again.
All the best
Aziz Awa
Yes indeed . Was an excellent conference and my personal
compliments to your self for the high standard of organisation. I would
very much look forward to visiting beautiful Sicily again.
Richard Nicholl
Nino,
Unusually, it is sunny and warm here in the UK, however, the view from my
office window of a busy London high street is somewhat removed from the
beautiful outlook over Sicilia from Utvegio Castle!
I hope the Committee, plus Annamaria et al and yourself, are proud of what
you achieved in Sicily.
The conference, the hotel, the location and of course Sicilian hospitality
and food were all superb.
I look forward to seeing if Franz and colleagues can meet the challenge
and maintain your high standards in Munich next year!
I met many great people from around the globe and look forward to exciting
future collaborations.
Kind regards
Claire Parkin.
Dear Nino,
thanks very much for the conference, I really enjoyed it.
We really apprecitaed all your hard work, and all the lovely food. The
diet started on Monday!
Best wishes
Penny Gardinier
Nino,
Bravo for a wonderfully well organized conference and SUPER care of all
the participants.
Kenneth Yew
Dear Nino,
Sandra and I both enjoyed the Sicilian experience. I hope that the seeds
thrown during the conference will grow into a productive network allowing
to keep in touch with the great people I had the chance to meet. A special
thank to Annamaria, Daniela, Carolina, Bruna, Alessandra, Gianluca and
your wife for being always so efficient and kind. Looking forward to next
conference.
Francesco Nonino
PS: diet? Who wants a diet?
Nino,
it was a great conference and we had a great time. Your hospitality was
the best.
My sandwich lunch today appeared so inadequate!!!
See you soon and thank you again.
Tara Dean
Dear Nino,
I would like to thank you so much for bringing us to such a wonderful
place for a conference!
The hotel, the castle, the restaurants and the tours were all utterly and
completely wonderful and beautiful. I particularly loved the setting of
the Antica Focacceria and the sunset over the place on the north coast
fishing port with the fish restaurant... and the wonderful mountains on
both sides of the hotel La Torre- ..... I could go on and on and on....
And, it was a great conference!
We would love to come back- to EBHC, and for more holidays as well
Thank you for showing us such a lovely place
I hope you will come for dinner when you are next in Oxford
Frances Gardner
Ciao Nino,
I just want to e-mail you to thank you for organising such a wonderful and
enriching conference. I thoroughly enjoyed it and found it both
stimulating and challenging. It has certainly got me thinking and has
provided a fresh and exciting direction for my career.
I also enjoyed meeting you, your team and all the other attendees, which
added to the fun and entertainment.
Speaking of entertainment, thank you for capturing the essence of the
Sicilian experience for us in the choice of restaurants and excursions we
enjoyed. You clearly put in a tremendous amount of work and your
assistants were all so very pleasant, helpful and professional. So, a very
big thank you to you all!!
I look forward to viewing the report on the website and indeed to
attending the conference in the future. In the meantime take care and
thanks again.
Slan agus beannacht [Irish for goodbye and God bless] :-)
Joanne Cleary
Thank you Nino for this marvelous organization.
You are welcome to Canada anytime.
Au revoir
Michel Labreque
Ciao Nino,
I just came back from a 2 week holiday. So better late than never I wanted
to thank you for the great hospitality, organization, food, scenery,
socials, and on and on. Everything was spectacular and of course the
Conference was great and very useful for new ideas.
Please extend this to the Organizing team who were so kind and patient and
also to the Steering Committe.
Looking forward for a next Conference
Luz Maria Letelier (Lula)
Dear Nino,
Thank you so much for organising such a wonderful conference.
We (my wife Simone Marshall and I) really enjoyed ourselves and came away
with lots of enthusiasm and useful knowledge that we are taking back to
our work in Australia.
After the conference we had 10 days to tour your beautiful Sicily. We
climbed Mt Etna, visited the lovely Cephalu and Syracuse, and lay on the
beach at Panarea. We continued to consume copious amounts of the delicious
food and have not managed to start our diets yet!
Thanks again and hopefully we will see you again in 2 years time - I am
hoping to convince more of my organisation to come over for that one.
Arrivederci
Simon French & Simone Marshall
Nino,
I wanted to thank you for all your efforts in putting together such a
wonderful, informative conference. This was also our first time to Italy,
and the experience was wonderful. Your planning, organization, and
hospitality was superb!!
Thanks for the wonderful time and for your help.
Stanley R. Robertson
Hi Nino,
The four participants from Denmark want to congratulate you all with an
excellent conference.
You made us feel very welcome and we all enjoyed the program, the company,
the food and wine and - not to forget - your beautiful island.
Thanks for an unforgetable time
Arrivederci!
Inge, Bente, Lise and Ane |
