Missed the second day of Gnomedex

I was at Gnomedex 5.0 (check out the Wiki page) on Thursday night and all day Friday, but then I had to go home before the Friday night bash at the library because the entire rest of my family was quite sick and needed me to take care of them. I also missed the conference today and am really bummed out. I did get the chance to meet a few people I have chatted with online, like Hobie Swan of MindManager, and bumped into pt with all his cool gadgets. Josh Bancroft even bummed me out some more when I heard that he had a chance to play and talk about pt's toys at the Friday party. I would love to have been there with Josh because I love to talk with others about gadgets.
