>>>I look forward to seeing you there and meeting you in person. BTW, I've been meaning to ask: After all these years of seeing your name in print, I don't know for sure how to pronounce it. If you could oblige, I'd rather not to misspeak in public. Thanks.

Try it with Russian accent :) I personally have no troubles with that as Tamara is a common Russian name.
