That being said, one of the best kept secrets of the Texas Remedy User's Group (TRUG) is our "Panel" discussion typically held at the end of the meeting which has always beena big hit. We have had such Remedy Brain Trust participants as Dr. Christopher Strauss, ARnold Noche, and others. Even if we have a presentation from Joe or others, there is always the "Birds of a Feather"(BOF) session series after the Technical/Breakout Sessions at WWRUG where you can sign up to "host" a BOF and use the same rooms, microphones, podium etc. that the sessions do and there is essentially not a 45 minute time limitation as there are in the sessions.
