OK, John. Take off your Board hat, and just lay out for us what is so
valuable about the STC Summit/AnnualConference that you are willing to pay
out of your own pocket for it.
How does contractor-vs-staff color this?
How does presenter-vs-attender?
How does rookie-vs-senior?
How does gregarious-vs-introvert?
