Bump into a 'Cover'? Where the Elite Meet to eat? Are you a Turtle?
I recently met with a client and we began discussing sources of information, I started to mention this site, and she responded; "You mean the Cove?". As it turns out, she is a regular (I shall not identify her -- to keep her reputation undamaged  ). That got me wondering how many times a Cover has bumped into another Cover. I know that some have been reported to be planned arrangements, but how many times has it happened?
Also, give some details.

I haven't bumped into anyone - but, one of my vendors was browsing and saw my name. He gave me a call and we have been helping each other out with a few things. Sort of a benchmarking relationship.
I'd love to bump into a cover some time. A lot of you are close to my area. Maybe someday.

I have not bumped into any yet. However, before I joined to Cove I was in a class with a Cove member.
I would be interested in talking to some of the members face to face.

Our old Quality Manager showed me the cove on several occasions while he was here and during the "training" period as he was leaving. He now happens to be the Quality Manager for one of our suppliers and is implementing an ISO 9000:2000 system where there was no certified system in place.
I might send a link to another one of our vendors who bought a "canned" package. I don't know how far along they are on their update, but this site might help them like it helped me!

We almost made it. Remember? There was a likely prospect that ISO GUY would have been one of our Auditors. But the deal fell through because our CEO decided it was too much money to spend around Christmas time, so he abolished the Quality Department and the Mgt Rep, dashing any plans for registration. (and he wanted to get rid of somebody anyway)

I met Richard Olson in a Lead Auditor class I taught last year before I found the cove. Does that count?
