Andrew Schneider:

Thanks! Yup, I'm showing the mouth-helmets (also called the Prolixus) and the perform-o-shoes...we'll see what fits in my carry-on. Would love to show more, but those are two long days of demo-ing. Thanks for setting up this network...fantastic!

Tony Stubblebine:

You've got some cool projects. Are you presenting any of them at the faire?
