The crowd was a little smaller than we had hoped at the SWUGN Summit – St. Louis this week, but the attendees that were able to attend were treated to some great presentations and\u00a0a lot of food at a nice venue.\u00a0 I thoroughly enjoyed the whole day, but my favorite part was an in-between sessions hallway discussion\u00a0led by a\u00a0couple of us “elder” folks.\u00a0 We talked about things like PCB design using crepe tape and mylar, Leroy and Kroy lettering systems, Ponce, and electric erasers (one of the younger folks exclaimed “electric erasers??”<\/strong><\/em>).\u00a0 Ahh…the good old days.<\/p>\n

Thanks to Todd Blacksher, Ed Eaton, Brian Reel, Rachel York<\/a>, and Judy Marlo for their excellent presentations.<\/p>\n

Here are some pictures from various user group meetings over the past two weeks.<\/p>\n
