Thank you Dave. In 2010, you should come to the Annual West Coast Civil War Conference. It will be on the rock, Alcatraz Island. Our theme is "Blood on the Ramparts: Coastal Defense in the Civil War." We're bringing in a couple of speakers from the East Coast as well as culling some local talent to give talks. It'll be on Feb. 13-15 (Fri, Sat & Sunday). Besides talks, there will be tours of the island including the prison and areas generally forbidden to the public (gun gallery and citadel beneath the prison).
