Well, it looks like I am not the only one running slowly today! This is the quiet before the storm. But I know soon the floor will be hopping to finish everything up.

We have broken all kinds of records. We had over 12,000 attendees registered yesterday and today they are expecting many more. Walk-ins are always very high once the floor is active. Someone told me the exhibitors are now over 770 in number. When I look around the floor I believe it.
