IMGDC is in Minnesota. After having had conferences across the Atlantic coast, this is a nice change of pace. People hold doors and say words like “please” and “thank you.” They smile and greet you even though they have never met you and will never see you again; these are not paid employees, these are just people at the same store being friendly Midwesterners. If you turn on a blinker, people will make space for you, instead of tailgating to make sure you don’t get ahead of them.
It is like going from Something Awful to Terra Nova.

Hey guys, trying to find you. I’m the guy in a black hoodie and jeans, typing comments on an iPhone. :) No idea what anybody looks like!
I’m from the midwest, so I know exactly what you mean. I’m glad you enjoyed “our” hospitality. :)
Sorry I didn’t get to talk to you guys much at the party. I love KTR!
Dave! Where did you go? I saw you once and you disappeared.
Bruce, at least we got a bit of sci fi chatter. Our day will come.
Sorry about that Dave. Kendricke, sorry about missing you Friday; for some reason, my phone mentioned your voice mail on Sunday.
