It was totally amazing to find a glitch in my implementation of EMC2 using my boards, walk 15 feet to where John Kasunich, Chris Radek and Jeff Eppler, among others, were sitting, describe the problem, and have a fix within minutes. Sometimes it was a problem in my driver, or the way I was doing things, but the interactive work on these fixes was incredibly productive!
On the other hand, if you want to talk to people building models and small engines, then Cabin Fever or the NAMES show in Toledo might be more to your liking. I have not attended Cabin Fever, but I've been to several NAMES shows, and that is totally incredible. I am not into the modelling scene, but I can sure understand the effort that goes into these things, and appreciate the beauty of these incredible gems.
