Unfortunately lapel mics are not possible, particularly with the
camera that was used.  Damn Sony and their proprietary
attachments....there's only one place to put a mic of any kind, and
the mic was in "directional" mode at the time.  :(

The perils of partitioning the "open" space have been duly noted and
we'll consider that in future OpenSQLCamp locations.
