Many thanks for the opportunity to meet, share slides, and chat with many of you this past weekend.

It was nice to finally be able to associate real faces behind the writing on so many useful topics on this list over the past few years,
and to see your work. The MF3D community has a lot of talented folks.

I had to leave early last night and time seemed to run out quickly so if I didn't get a chance to say my farewell to you -
all the best and I hope you had as good a time at NSA as I did.

It was great getting to put faces to names. Only one person
let me know that "you aren't at all what I was expecting". I
really don't know if that's a good thing or a bad, but I hope
to be invited back anyway :)

I got to show some MF views to a few people and had lengthy
conversations with many more about the TL120. It seemed that
people wanted to talk about the TL120 more than they wanted to
view slides. I wonder if this was a way of letting me know I
should cull more aggressively next time I'm packing my box for
a trip.

I had an opportunity to help someone mount their first MF3D
slide and by the time we were done there were three slides
mounted and the results were things to be proud of.

I spent more time talking about the TL120 and mounting-technique
than I did viewing slides. I'm afraid I only got to see half of
one of the four (or was it three) folios that was present in Boise.
What I saw was wonderful, though.
