Blogdinner Nostalgia

0

I have just written a speech for ETC blogdinner tonight in Boston, when we will also celebrate the 20th anniversary of this blog and we will have a big anniversaryquiz where guests can win fine bookprices. 

Here are a few random images from past blogdinners for the sake of pure nostalgia. I cannot remember when exactly we had our first blogdinner, but I said we broke a new record in New Orleans 2009 with 35 participants so that was not the first. The first photo shows Peter Head preparing his legendary blogdinner address – spiritual, witty and starting out from a Greek text read from his well-worn Novum Testamentum Graece. Normally, they were written a few minutes before delivery, and sometimes, I think, on a handkerchief (that might be my improvement of a good story).
