I owe Chris Pirillo from Lockergnome an apology. He responded promptly to my earlier comment that Ronni Bennett's session at Gnomedex was omitted from the resultant broadcast. This was not the case at all, and I am mortified that I even considered jumping to a conclusion without considering the sheer magnitude of potential technical glitches in mounting the conference and getting the results out to the public. Really, that I jumped to a conclusion, period. That's not the way to foster problem-solving communication.
Had I read Gnomedex's philosophy before thoughtlessly drawing incorrect conclusions, I would have saved myself considerable embarrassment. I wholeheartedly support their mission.
Chris' reply deserves a more prominent location than the comments section. Here's his comment:
"Ah, no... the videos that are there now aren't the "official" videos. :)
We had conversion problems and are trying again with the source Mini DV tapes... trust me, we take Ronni and her message very seriously. ;)"
Thanks Chris, for being so gentle with a jaded, crusted, old lady ;) I'm extremely excited about exploring solutions to these issues, and I applaud your efforts.

That is nice but so are you, Claudia!
*blush* Thanks, Kay :)
I'm awed by all the brilliant minds, young and old, that are tackling the issue of aging and technology. I think it's a great example of our country's values, which have taken quite a beating the last seven years.
