I've been invited to go. I think I will.

It'll be worth your time. Disregard the cynicism, there will be plenty of dedicated, very smart professionals there to share what they know with their peers. Enjoy.

Everything the dedicated and very smart professionals know is easily searchable on google. But that's not to imply that they don't throw a wicked party. I'm sure it'll be fun.

[Phil Lilley]

Wicked party... I'll probably skip that seminar.

You should be GIVING IT! Nobody can top a Lilley-style party, from what I've seen of them.

Yeah I went to one of those conference as a young idealistic MU Fisheries and Wildlife major years ago. Just went for the day and the information was interesting!
