Comment by Dean Whitney on April 20, 2008 at 7:02pm: I'd be there if I wasn't speaking at another event Thursday - sounds exciting!

I checked out the site; the event is this Thursday, April 24th. . Register Today, Myles told me they are just about sold out. Tell them I sent you from the Exchange and I bet you can get a special rate (wink, wink).

Comment by Myles on April 21, 2008 at 10:49am: Late breaking news: The AMA will be are giving away Red Sox tickets, but you have to register and attend for a chance to win.

Comment by Myles on April 22, 2008 at 9:14am: The BC Eagle mascot will be there too. Should be a lot of fun!

Comment by Dean Whitney on April 22, 2008 at 9:16am: Oh man! I now I really wish I could go :(
