Duke,
We start a thread titled "What I did while NOT at the Convention"!!! Besides being totally bummed by not being there. After attending every convention and chairing 4 of them, I made the mistake of offering to take our niece to San Diego for a soccer tourney while her parents are out of the country BEFORE I knew the dates of the tournament. You guessed it, we fly out early Friday for 5 days in sunny San Diego instead of hot Vegas with all the chippers. What fun are you other folks having this weekend?<g>

Being miserable in Dallas on the way to Cal, hoping for layover in Vegas! :(
