fixed it
There were many around me snapping away, I think with superior precision.
Perhaps when I have time, I'll upload them (with Dan's permission, of course ;) ).

You weren't the first to think of that.  Dan unequivocally refused (at least at the seminar).

I'll let him answer for himself (although it shouldn't take much brains to figure that out on your own).

BTW to whoever contributed the projector  screen, in case you didn't realize, it has holes!  (thanks for the screen)

Which screen?
I remember when a coke was a nickel, and you could buy VRs in OD.

So should I open with the same joke in Lakewood?
Or too risque there?

No need to say what it was.  Got almost as much hearty laughter as last year's joke :)
Yea it was a nice opening joke :)

Dan, on the screenshots of AA award booking, on the upper right hand, I saw the amount of available miles in your account......

I guess it slipped through, unless you don't mind people knowing what's in your account......

Just a HT to erase it before Lakewood.


Thanks for the seminar, really enjoyed it.
The true blue/American pajamas were in use last night as per the winner

So a few people have told me I went too fast on the award section.

I understand those topics are not going to be grasped to easily by a noob, but what could I have said to have made it easier?
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Did anyone note the time I finished the slides? I think it was about 10:20, so that would mean I covered 70 slides in about 135 minutes.

It was not too fast, just a hard topic to understand 100% after just a hour or 2 of explaining
