Hey John, I was there - and my impressions were basically the same as yours. I'd add that: (a) I expected a much smaller crowd than actually appeared; (b) Many firms that had sprawling displays covering whole quarters or eighths of the Expo floor in the past are now occupying tiny, 12' by 12' booths. And, there were a few highly conspicuous absences; and, (c) Booth bait seems to be the definitive marketing approach of choice this year. Best handout: Interactive Brokers' icescraper LP.

After attending the first five Expo's without fail, I had to pass on this one. I hated to have to pass up the perfect attendance gold star, which undoubtably will now go to Alan (edit: Alan didn't attend either? Does anyone still have an Expo perfect record now?). Instead of the Expo, I have come to Vancouver to meet with the nice folks at AFSI (the company Matthias, supertip, works for). In addition, I look forward to meeting with Vic from Reality Trader before I go. Glad to hear that the Expo had decent attendance and was not a complete flop. Hopefully, interest will pick up further for the next Expo, presumably in California this August. -Eric
