I thought Bernard's presentation was great. A very different type of 
presentation subject. Perhaps I'm in the minority, A lot of folks in the 
room didn't seem to 'get' that one.

I wanted more out of the google presentation. There was wayyyy to much "I 
can't answer that", or "I'm not really the most qualified person..."

Perhaps you aren't, but you're in front of us, and so make a stab at it 
without all the qualifiers.

Perhaps Google needs to sit down and work out what their speakers can and 
can't say ? He seemed too wary to me.

That said, the subject matter was nice, albeit nowhere near as technical 
as I'd desired.

The venus was excellent, as was the food. I look forward to the next event 
there.

Cheers,

Al
