    For people who have not attended this conference before, I
    		 HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!!!

    Can you tell I enjoyed last year's conference?  It seemed to have
    a nice blend of recognizing hurdles through careers, discussion
    how specific people dealt with these hurdles, and recommending
    options.  It definitely did not dwell on complaining about the
    past (which I have little patience with).
