The poor guy never got a bite of food. Just as he'd try to eat, someone asked a question. I watched him and decided I wouldn't ask one question, but I surely did make up for it when I got home. I wrote immediately and thanked him for hosting the table. He told me he never plans to eat much at a conference so he can share info. What a great guy, but some of the folks were soooo rude.Linda Glazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04374683352435771715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2443765296489868573.post-51724801852067440022011-08-31T17:24:51.563-04:002011-08-31T17:24:51.563-04:00I always plan to bring my own coffee supplies to a...I always plan to bring my own coffee supplies to a conference. (With a few notable exceptions, most conference center coffee is mediocre at best.) Am I a coffee snob? Absolutely! As an emergency measure, it's good to bring a stash of instant coffee. Even when the coffee runs out or isn't ready yet, there's still likely the tea-drinker's hot water, which you can add to your instant. It's better than nothing.Andy Scheernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2443765296489868573.post-12539838288775003332011-08-31T12:20:38.277-04:002011-08-31T12:20:38.277-04:00I meant also, not alsom.

But those types alsom force me to look in the mirror and ask, "Am I showing off?"
