People like you are what made ALF a success. There were two versions of the printed spreadsheets. The original ones were by registration date (a special request which I initially questioned on Friday) followed on Saturday AM by the more common-sense ones sorted by last name. ;-) Wifi credentials were to have been printed on the back of everyone's name tag, but there were issues at the last minute that prevented that from occurring. These lessons will be remembered for ALF 2010. Coffee, an initial consideration, was rejected at the last moments due to costs. Starbucks wanted $400+ to provide and deliver coffee+cups for 300 people. Then there was the possibility that some people would protest because they might not like the Starbucks company, and then there would be those who would say "why not tea?!?!". At the end of the day it's apparent that we can't please all the people all of the time... but if coffee and registration are the only complaints, that means we must have scored well on content (not that any of us had any free time to attend any). ;-) Marc, Thank you for volunteering and helping out immensely during the registration rush, as well as through out the whole day.
