style='font-size:12.0pt'>Michael Pannwitz and I, along with a marvelous crew of
Open Spacers entertained some 2108 delegates to a congress in Wuerzberg,
Germany. We in fact had the whole system in the room, and it was glorious. 2108
is our number, and there doesn't seem to be an official one, so I'll take it.
Anyhow, there were a whole bunch of people. According to Michael, who counts
such things, some 236 issues were posted, of which 150 ended up with reports.
And of course, the whole agenda was created in about 35 min. Michael held the
microphone, and ran the folks through like cattle. Respectfully, of course. At
times there were more than a hundred people waiting to announce their issue,
and the cue curled double on itself. I know Michael was in there somewhere, but
you sure couldn't prove it by sight. <br>
<br>
The majority of the people present spoke German, so Michael and I did a duet.
The program said that Michael would translate for me -- but I quickly disabused
folks of that notion. I told them that Michael would do his thing, and i would
do mine -- and with luck we would end up at the same place. Major fun!<br>
<br>
Break Out areas were designated by numbered balloons, and the signs, butterflys
and bumble bees flew through the air with their own magic balloons. Michael's
idea, which was superb.<br>
<br>
Lots of learning -- including the fact that OS for 2000 works just like always.
Not a problem. And of course Michael and I would be pleased to answer any
questions that pop up in your fertile imaginations.<br>
