Anyone going to MANTS this week?

Anyone? I'm heading up there Thursday.

And I put this under winter work because, um, it's winter- and related to work?

What did you think? (I should've remembered I posted this- we could've met up for lunch or something)

I feel better about things, having attended. It seemed every bit as big as the last time I went ('06 or '07), and everyone seemed pretty cautiously hopeful for the season. I was a little worried that there might be a general atmosphere of "we're all gonna die!", but I feel good. Found some great products, re-established some relationships with vendors... totally worth the 6 hour round trip from where I live.

I actually didn't make it up there today. I'm going tomorrow. I'm glad to hear something positive. I had heard on Wednesday that it wasn't crowded---very quiet.

That's what one of the guys from Stadler told me- that it was pretty dead. Hopefully it's a good day for you today.
