Very well said Susan. Wow this thread really got everyone's blood flowing. As for me, there was no way that I could go to conference this year. Hopefully next year. And I also would like any information that anyone wants to share. And I promise not to say a word to anyone at all. My email address is [email protected].
I hope everyone had a great time that went.
