Hey Stephen (aka "Head Chef" <g>).

>I feel that this conference is the BEST bang for the BUCK that I have paid for in my consulting carrear. If you are a consultant that is paying for a conference out of your own pocket this is a must book event for next year.

GLGDW has always been one of the best conferences around, and certainly the best value. However, this year's version bumped it to "the best conference" status, IMO.

>I would like to take this time to thank Whil for a marvelous experience

I agree. It's amazing what an incredible conference that essentially one person can put together (although there are several us who believe that the person we know as Whil isn't actually one person but is in fact one of a large number of clones <g>).
