Indeed. I had to wait for Lynn to get out of work (Long story) and we hit
some bad rush hour traffic and construction zones on 131, which was just
plain awful. I was surprised all the tables were up and ready to go when I
got there, about 5:00PM EST.

Awesome job, Steve. That was really something to watch.

Yes, excellent idea. That was from a lot of feedback from Novi, as a good

What in the world is a hauptbahnhof?

I sent a better logo to Peter yesterday.

Indeed.

Right.

Great show overall, best yet, IMNSHO, not that I have many, really.
