I’ll do one more bump. Two hours to go! ~smiles~ Do you guys normally have an SDMB sign? That’s what they do in Houston. I have seen a picture of Geobabe but no one else that I can think of. Oh wait…I’ve seen pictures of Opal, too. ---

I really enjoyed meeting people and putting faces with the user names I see so regularly. I also enjoyed the extreme variety of conversation that went on. I think most of us also learned the definition to at least one new word, so this dopefest continued the fight against the ignorance. My wife was the only true non-doper there and she seemed to have a great time as well. I’m looking forward to the next gathering of dopers that is close enough for me to attend. -Belz ---

Crap. I wish I’d seen this thread before today. Somebody email me next time! I don’t spend a lot of time in MPSIMS. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/atlantadope-fest/292033.md?page=3)
