Any aspects of the conference that you looking forward to...?

I am looking forward to several things.

Including...

Who's attending vs. Who attended last year. (Market Research) ;)

The scuttlebutt....there is always some good scoop.

All the presentations, and all of my good questions.:D

These 2 look interesting and David Orr is a clever guy... have you seen his putter ( custom pimped stuff... all for results rather than looks... posted on BSG and it has been well thought out ... to enable him to set the clubface square etc....)

Do you think that a true sequenced release occurs ( swingers release wrist cock the start to rotate... i know they can be overlapped but does ping man release fully sequentially??)

Glad to see you going all out to see what the cutting edge of technology can bring to the game... always learning!

PM sent.

Cold Morning in Cambridge.

Your host here with our mate, Damon Lucas, ready to meet Ben and Joanne Doyle downstairs at the Hyatt on the river.

Looking forward to a good day, and with the help of my Broadband Card, I might be able to keep you abreast in semi-Real Time.

:)

Brian, Ben, et al,

Great to have all of these great golf minds in town just across the river. If you need a "lab rat" for any of your experiments over there at MIT, shoot me a PM. Solid 23 hcpr. Could be there in ten minutes! :)

There's a lot of smart people at the Summit including yourself Brian. I will be very interested to see your report back espeically on David Orr's presentation and Steve Atheton's.

Oh nice. Where are you guys meeting? In the Media Lab? I actually graduated in '97 but dont think I've heard anyone mention golf during my 4 years there.

What a day!

I got more scoop than a man can handle.

I also asked a bunch of "award winning" questions, and as usual, found a way to "moderate" from my chair.

The talks ranged from A- to D-, but more on the grades after tomorrow.

Dinner—as usual—was the highlight of the day. Myself, Ben and Joanne Doyle, Damon Lucas, Dave Edel, David "NAT" Orr, and three others at "Fire & Ice."

A+

Talk to you tomorrow....very sleepy....:)
