Conventioneers would use the clicker to sound off, instead of clapping, and making other joyful sounds.

I’ve called nearly all the numbers, and checked names, and website addresses. Yes, I did find several wrong items, and made the appropriate changes to our list. See if you can think of any other resources we need to add. And sure, look at our list, with an eye to find any other corrections that we need to make, please.
