Some other pieces of feedback:
"’As far as human achievements
go, I think this comes in a close third, after the invention of the wheel
and then the Internet. Another fantastic job by all concerned and
I hope there are many more to come.
I am struggling to think of anything
that was missing, cheerleaders?"
”Well, you have already heard about
the wifi not being open on port 1352.
Very well organized, and a good venue.
Thank you, again!"
"’Group hugs next year?"
"’can be described with three words
fun, fun fun.
At this day i was really wondering where
Paul gets his energy from. He must have some sort of hidden battery implanted
somewhere."
"One very small thing that was
not that good, was the lunch (only sandwiches all days). But the whole
conference was free so I have absolutely no problem with that."
There were many other comments, the
vast majority of which were positive and understanding. Our thanks
to you all. Some of the negatives that we knew about already:
Lunch could of been better (catering
is WAY expensive)
Port 1352 (we know we know)
Bar closed early
Venue was not as easy to navigate as
last year (we were just too big for last years venue).

Hmm, the one I did with Julian made the top ten, the one I did by myself didn’t. So either I have to present with Julian in order to be good at this gig (note: we’re ignoring the possibility – probability? – that Julian is that good *in spite of* me), or there was a penalty assessed for taking up Mooney’s dare and cursing to such an extreme.
It couldn’t possibly be due to the fact that I was massively hungover during my solo presentation (thanks to my Evil Cousin, Steve McDonagh)…

The fact you made it for your own session denotes immediate respect from the CBM group (Coatsie, Buchan, McDonagh)
