Julie, the wickedcool NSDL representative tells us that she doesn't have any PowerPoint slides and there is a spontaneous burst of applause.

Why are so many people terrible at making these presentations? And why does everyone feel it is NECESSARY to have them now-adays. Have our attention spans become so shortened by tv (I blame Sesame Street) that we can't sit and watch a person talk for 40 minutes. I would have applauded, too.
(Sorry about that. I felt that this was a perfect opportunity to get my bi-monthly anti-PP rant off my chest).
Hope the last day of your conference is fun-filled and nut-free.
