ASCA's Debut Conference a Hit

Dan O'Connor, Editor-in-Chief

It was a great few days in steamy San Antonio, site of "ASCs 2008," the first annual meeting of the ASC Association (ASCA), the new group formed through the merger of AAASC and FASA. By all accounts, last month's show was a wonderful success, both in size and scope. The show had an energy, a buzz, that wasn't there when AAASC and FASA each put on their own shows that were pretty hard to tell apart.
