<DIV>Talking about fighting for the elevators, when George and I were in New
Orleans, after the banquet, there was some kind of a stupid fight at the
elevator, and I don’t even know why. This one guy yelled: “You’re in

going to stab one of us with it. Pam.</DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal>I enjoyed the convention as well, but I would not want them
all to be that way. I’d love to see some sessions run on Zoom for those who
can’t come in person, but there is nothing like the feeling of empowerment you
feel when you are actually there. The hugging of friends, the eves dropping on
conversations you hear at the bar, the fighting at the elavators, even the rude
person who jabbed her elbow in to me one year when I ever so slightly brushed
her arm in a crowd. All of those things make up a real convention. I found the
convention informative, but I did not feel that sense of motivation I usually
feel when I leave national.<o:p></o:p></P>

want?<o:p></o:p></P>
