True, many times I was deep into soybean harvest in the last of September, and couldn't attend, but that time slot was much better for harvest demonstrations, and did not conflict with other shows as much as it does now. 

I see little value for such a show at the end of August, so close to labor day.  I have not attended since the show date has changed, usually too hot, and crops not the best of condition for harvest demonstrations.

Does anybody else feel they messed up big time with the change in dates, or am I sitting alone out here on the end of this log?
