Fabtech Cleveland
What will be the next major event for the Tube and Pipe Industries? My
calender says that there is Fabtech Cleveland coming next on November 14 -16.
Based on the correspondence with the organizers, I have understood
that the show has been sold out long time ago. What comes to Tube Pavilion,
the organizers reported that it will be 64% larger this year having 119 exhibitors. I guess that
these figures are talking thir own language. Fabtech Cleveland is doing
very well.
I have no chance to attend Fabtech but I wish all the best
for all of you who have already booked your trip to Cleveland.
Keep me informed how the show turned out!
Warning for fraud messages
Here is a general warning for all TubeNet visitors. I have
received some questionable Nigerian source emails
regarding an "opportunity of a lifetime" etc. I have reason
to believe that some TubeNet members may have received similar emails
with promise of making lots of money. This is a fraud that has been going
on for quite a few years now and I would like everybody to be aware of it.
What they usually do is request a person's bank account numbers with the
promise of depositing a large sum into it and you receive a commission,
what they then (try to) do is remove your existing funds and you never hear from
them again. Click here

Schumacher won the Formula 1 title 2000
Same time last year I was delighted to write that my countryman - Mika Hakkinen
was the worldchampion. This year I have to accept that it is Michael Schumaher's turn.
Anyhow, Schumacher has earned the victory. There are no doubts about that and the matter that
Ferrari finally won the champioship is only good for the Formula 1
generally. It keeps the interest alive and that secures the flow of sponsoring money which is
necessary for the circus.
Cheers,
Juha Haapala
