i AM actually at the conference which is actually very good. everyone i have spoken to has an agenda. a book to sell, a product concept to promote. fibre network, quality of service etc for sale.

content of rest of days looks good.

best quotes so far from the international speakers:

"I disagree, i think we can agree"
" we are firmly in the twenteenth century"
"execute - ive staff" (rather than executive staff - hachett man?)
"we will all be satisfied professionally during the conference"

wifi in the luncheon area. just my luck my work remote email access is down :-(
