I was invited to my first team meeting at Tom's condo in Glen Ellyn. While there I shot a few photos. We were introduced to National Geographic's Chris Sondrel. He is a producer for the Nat Geo TV show. He was there to meet us and shoot some preliminary video in preparation for a show they were going to do on the Wright Redux project. As we know, however, the deal fell through when Nat Geo ran out of money to produce the show. This after coming out 3 or 4 times to video tape our progress and giving us a few thousand dollars along the way. I wonder what ever happened to that tape.
