Well I look forward to seeing you there! Does that mean that Cary (and therefore the foundation office are aware of the event?) don't feel pressured to come along - like everything else in the wiki-verse you can't force people to be interested in something. So if it's not your cup of tea and you feel "railroaded" I won't hold it against you if you're not coming. It would be great if you did, of course! Just don't feel pressured to do so. best, - Liam
