    Scott, I’m in for the conference. I was always in. But what I (and probably the rest of your readership) wants to know is when you’re going to honor your promise to hold a 24 hour Ask-Scott-Anything event. Don’t let the summer slip by without this happening. Your fans would probably never forgive you.
