Woah, this is really not called for. Let's keep this kind of stuff off of
this list. David has made some very valuable contributions to us at the last
expo.

David also has a right to be upset; I goofed up (the short version: my
computer with David's name and some others was left in Oakland disconnected
off the net for a week. Of course that was the 1 week window I had to get a
list of exhibitor's names to the show..)

In fact, it's trivial. I can get exhibitor's badges for anyone who I left
out who shows up at the expo while I'm there and calls my on my cell phone
(408-206-0615). In fact, when Nathan got his, they didn't even request id or
confirmation from me. You can probably just walk in and get one on your own.
