I'm there, at the Marriott. Email me directly if you want to
get together for dinner or something. Also, any exhibitors know
what we're supposed to do tomorrow?

Setup at 9:00 AM tomorrow, while missing the speakers!
Unbeleiveable. Its bad enough half the show takes place on a weekday,
but no advanced
setup time for vendors or exhibits is not the way to run such an event, IMO.

All these exhibits are going to be setup within an hour, the same hour?
With no issues of used unloading zones, etc?

Hmmm... Looks like the speakers don't start till 10.
It won't take me more than an hour to set up, but I
can see how others might need more time.
1:44 p.m.
Quite a few people (>10%?) go to work at 8:00.
You might want to at least have one person try for
that and let the rest know if he gets in.
Pick a friendly person <g>.
I would kinda expect Sellam to be around somewhere
now to help you coordinate too.
I know we all eMail each other too much but try switching
to the Phone and the FrontDesk as your comm. tools

easy for me to say, not there till Tomorrow.
1:50 p.m.
I am in a building full of little passages. All of the rooms have numbers on
them. Many have a sign that says "gnikoms on". Rumor has it that other VCF
attendies may be very near. Since a 7 preceeds a room number, give 7615 a
ring. The wife and I are looking to grab a quick dinner, and some company
could be nice.

Otherwise I will see you all in the morning.

I have no idea what the time constraints are on the place where VCF East
is being held, but it would seem like this event should be considered
*FUN*. It sounds like you are taking this way too seriously and need to
lighten up. If you really want to hear the speakers, bring someone else
to help setup.
VCF is a *GREAT* place to put faces with names and get to know others on
the list. Generally speaking, what I sell at VCF pays for the expenses
of being there (hotel, meals, etc.)
