First the whole team here at GA-ESI would like to thank all of our customers that made it to this years Users Group Meeting for making it one of the most interesting, informative and fun meetings we have had.

One of the more interesting reports was on how Elin Oil (in Greece) has installed the TMS3000 and PowerLoad units aboard two ships in the Mediterranean Sea. These ships will travel from island to island refueling gas stations. As far as I know, it is the first terminal in the world that makes house calls.

Another interesting report was on the HOSL fire. Through our contacts within Total UK, we were able to get first hand accounts of the whole incident and make recommendations on how terminals here in the US can avoid a similar situation.

I wish I had the foresight to record the session on Crystal Reports. It was one of the most informative sessions I have had the pleasure to sit in on. A special thanks goes to Trista Fandel for this great session. As a former instructor for Crystal Reports and a current user of the TMS3000, she was able to not only show how Crystal Reports works but also how it specifically works with the TMS3000. In conjunction with the class on Crystal Reports, Bill Friesenhahn gave a class on database table review for the TMS3000. Between these two classes, I believe that even a salesman could write his own reports.

At the end of the first day, everyone was entertained with a dinner/dance cruise of San Diego Harbor. Between the superbly prepared dinner and the beautiful views, it was a perfect evening.
