I'm a David Benoit fan, just like you. I started working on this web site in the (relatively) early days of the web revolution (1995) and it's been quite an adventure. Over the years, I have enjoyed meeting and corresponding with many of you who have sent email to comment or ask questions re: the site and/or DB. If you do feel inspired to send me an email message, please try to come up with a descriptive subject line (at the very least put the phrase 'David Benoit' in it). I receive well over 300 spam messages a day, and would hate to delete your email by mistake. I do try to answer each pertinent email, but please realize that I am not an employee of Peak/GRP/David Benoit, and oftentimes the best I can do for you is forward your message on to the right channels. Please check the FAQ to see if your question has been answered (oh, I guess you're reading the FAQ already! :-)), and if you can't wait any longer for a response, the man himself (that would be David) does read the emails sent to "d b f a n m a i l @ g m a i l . c o m", so you can send your question there and you just may be surprised to get a response. I used to work in the education/computer industry, but now I own a travel agency franchise called Cruise Planners (an American Express Travel Services affiliate). Drop me a line if you want me to help you plan your next cruise or land vacation! We book all major cruise lines, as well as escorted land tours (Maupintour, Tauck, Trafalgar, etc.), all-inclusives (Club Med, Sandals, Beaches, Dreams), air/land packages (Custom Classic, Apple, GoGo) and of course, Disney. If you've actually read this far, I'm impressed! ;-) |
