Walking around the floor with some young engineers can really be fun. They bring a freshness to what

we mature (old) engineers see. I have met Rob Morrow and Kris Johnson previously. They introduced me to Holly Spracklia. They are all from High Energy Inc, an engineering consulting firm from Denver. High Energy sent their young engineers to the Expo to learn about the new technologies. They sure had lots of smart grid questions, so I introduced them to Holly Bounds of Siemens. She took them into the Smart Grid Tour and let them play with the technology - thanks Holly.

The engineers tell me they really enjoyed the Siemens event. I hope you all do too.
