Re: [AGA-mcm] ACA Personal Impressions



It was great to see the folks that were able to make it
there -- even to have enough time to share a meal or two
friends. 

David Lim actually took a day off from practicing for his
MCATs to help staff the tables, *and* he brought plants --
talk about generous. Harold worked long into the night on
Thursday and came back again two more days. Or was it
Friday? I still have convention lag. I called Erik by three
diff names in the space of about 5 minutes.

I never worked the long continuous hours at the table that
the others did, answering customer questions one after the
other, hour after hour, especially Cheryl and Ann -- what
troopers. Nor did I do the long-into-the-evening video
taping that Erik did despite the need (which he cheerfully
met) to rise early the following mornings. And Larry, well,
I expected him to start going, "Beep beep," since he was
running around like the Road Runner all weekend. I don't
know for sure, but I would guess that a big part of the
reason that ACA treated AGA so exceptionally well was due
to Larry, who, btw, brought more than enough extension
cords and projectors -- how many times does *that* happen
at a convention?

But my personal highlight, perhaps because if falls within
my *skills set*, I got a chance to show off prowess at
making raspberries with Isaak (he does it better and with
unmitigated glee) and watching Markus's inquisitive
pleasure checking out just about everything is sight -- if
TSA is that attentive, we're in good hands.
