Last Word on the Conference
Well, the conference has come and gone, and good bloody riddance I say.
THE END
UPDATE: It would be remiss of me not to point out that people were told (by mistake) to format their posters in a protrait style rather than the normal landscape. Space had been allocated such that the posters would fit one above the other.
Anyway, in a touching display of something-or-other, everyone did exactly as they were asked (even though what they were asked to do was patently stupid) and we were left with the top half of the upper posters flopping about helplessly and the bottom half of the lower posters trailing across the floor.
Next year, delegates will be asked to print their posters on Post-It notes attached to $100 bills.
UPDATE II: What conference, you ask?? You know, the one I would have mentioned a lot more, if only I posted here more regularly. Hmm ... posted more regularly ... well, if there's a lesson here, I'm completely failing to see it.
