Want to echo what all have said. My
first one was in Halifax -- don't know what number, but very early. Many
wonderful conferences, and learned a lot from everyone,. I also want to
thank yawl for the start (and end) of my (talent night) dramatic
career -- !!

Sorry to jump in here again, but it would be horribly
remiss of us not to
mention the central role of Russ Hunt and Jim Reither, especially, and
Doug Vipond and Thom Parkhill as well, in the founding of Inkshed.
They are responsible for helping to set in motion a million good ideas.
