Hi Laura,
A chapter closes for you too! Congrats to your son.
I still think it is funny that we met in Boston because @shareski inSaskatchewannoticed you across the room via my Ustream of Alan's pre-conference presentation.Your presence will be missed at BLC09… but I'm sure we will keep in touch. China isn't that far away when we have Twitter, blogs, and a wealth of other communication and collaboration tools.
Thanks to you, and everyone else for their well wishes!
Dave
