I like the concept of "vamping until ready." It puts a name to a phenomenon that I have experienced. Seems that it takes a little time at the start of the meeting to let everyone arrive in the room, bring back the attention that is scattered to events at home or office, traffic on the freeway, glitches in finding the meeting site, etc. And a bit of taking charge of the space before you release it to the participants.<BR>
