Before you know it, we will all be getting ready for the big 100th AOCS Annual Meeting & Expo in Orlando. As I'm sure you've already heard, there will be a great exhibit in which we will celebrate 100 years of vegetable-oil-based products. Let's make sure that industrial oil products get their proper credit. I am working on a listing all of the biggest events in oil product innovation over the last century, but need your help. If you have any significant events in vegetable oil chemistry to contribute, let me know. We don't want to leave anything out. We also have planned a showcase and a multi-posterboard display. It is up to you as to what will be on the posters and in the showcase. I have received some great ideas so far, but there is still a lot of room left. I know this may seem a little early to be worrying about next year's meeting, but remember how fast the summer went. Thank you, Dr. Kenneth M.
