Departing from Hollywood International in Ft. Lauderdale, headed to Thailand, Mason, and his production crew were on their way to document Thailand's Vanishing Textiles. The coverage of the Quest Series aired on a PBS segment featuring H.M. Queen Sirikit's SUPPORT program.

"There are twenty hours of un-edited, never aired video shot from the hill tribes of northern Thailand, and we have captured the results of the untiring efforts of Sidharta Gautama," said Mason. Gautama accomplishments is the subject of his next Quest Series production project.

Mason wanted to thank Kieran Dee and Miguel Oritz for making the trip. At the time of the trip we were facing the recent outbreak of Bird Flu, so the masked minions acted professionally. "I don't think they will ever forget that trip," said Mason. That's what happens when the story has a happy ending.
