Do you discuss ideas? I see only reports on what's happening, which is merely being a master of the obvious. I saw the last speaker conference, the host talked about it being about ideas, then the rest of the time it was all stating the obvious. I don't see any ideas, am I wrong?
Thank you for the newsletter. Great overview of what's going on. I'm curious about the Victoria Conference Centre. What happened that they felt we couldn't go back? It seemed to have all gone so smoothly.
