We’re here in Greensboro, North Carolina, roughly central to this very wide state. It’s a great conference and a large conference, attracting educators from across this state, Virginia, and South Carolina. The theme this year is “Celebrating 20 Years.” I started to bring some of my vintage computers, an Apple Newton and a Radio Shack Model 100. But decided against it at the last minute.
