RE: 2004 common conferences and beyond

I've said this before, and I'm not looking to start a bandwidth wasting 
thread here, but if you show up at a conference with an attitude that you 
are going to find something that will give your boss a good ROI, COMMON is 
essentially free education. Show up with a business problem to be solved, 
talk to your peers and the IBM'ers, find the solution to the problem, go 
home and make your boss happy. It's pretty simple. I've been doing it 
since 1980. 

It's 2004. Stop griping about current-day pricing.
