When I told my wife that RCG turned three years old today, she looked at me in disbelief…

Are you going to Vegas?
or more interestingly, are you going to my presentation on Tuesday morning?
If so, I’d love to know. I’m just finishing up the presentation now and would love to include a few screenshots of people’s blogs who will be in the audience.
