Each time i visit
http://www.csun.edu/cod/conference/2015/sessions/index.php/public/conf_sessions/
Which is the page listing all of the sessions at CSUN, seems like I
find things I missed. I did a search for sessions relating to
cognitive issues and found several results. Some were dealing with
autism, some were general cognitive issues, and others were more
specific. I honestly can't figure out how they expect us to go to all
sessions, especially when there's between three and five at any given
time that catch my interest. It's like going to an NFB convention on
steroids.

While I'm not comfortable putting my cell number out here for anyone
to see, if someone wants to meet, email me privately by tomorrow night
and we can exchange details.

San Diego weather is sounding better all the time,
