I am so tempted to do the Holy Grail joke as a QotD.
Steve, would you approve such an animal if I sent it in?

Perhaps for a holiday. Can you make it relevant to one? Or make it obvious it's a joke? Not the answer or the reference, but it's a joke?

I will certainly give it my best shot.

I actually have a real review of one of my stories. A real one, as opposed to a review that doesn't say anything.

How did it go? I had a great, if tiring, weekend with the Scouts, but I'm sorry I missed this event.

I have a question for all the SQL Saturday organizers.
What type of topics do you see a need for that you don't see enough of?
What level of topics do you not get enough of (beginner, intermediate, expert)?

Answering Grant and Stefan in one shot.
I think the event went well.
There were 150 or so people in attendance.
The pizza was not so good - but hey.
Slava learned a few things from this event that he can use next time if he does it again.
My presentation could have gone more smoothly (2 minor demos that failed - but I know why they did and know what to do next time to prevent that). I had too much info to cover in 1hr15. I will be trimming it back somewhere. I have some ideas on that too, as well as some ideas to speed it up in case trimming back causes the flow (of presentation) to get out of whack.
In the end - I think people learned and that was the goal.
