John,

I just got a voice mail back from David Tacha (Biocare).  He is willing to
talk but has stated that it is usual and customary for us to pay for
airfare and one nights stay.  Now, obviously I will let him know that we
were hoping to have Biocare sponsor him, but if this is not an option,
should I volunteer CSH to pay for him?   I think that he is a really good
speaker.  I would be uncomfortable asking any other  company  to sponsor a
Biocare rep.   Please advise.    Davis is in California....I would guess
that total cost would be  $700 - $1000.
