Trip report:
good muffins.
Poked into a good session on the nuts and bolts of testing techniques,
priority sorting,and pooling of vendor equipment test results, how to visit
vendors (by utilities and by epri). Overall impression was a pretty good
set of engineer types comparing notes on practical matters. tone was low
key but serious.

Wish I had more time to attend. Looked like one could spend three days
there and emerge pretty well up on the techcial issues.
Did not see a full schedule or get a sense of plenary type meetings
addressing overall national risk etc.
no press coverage observed. I called several media and told them they
should get their bu...s down there.

What's your snail mail address? I picked up some handouts I'd be happy to
send you.
