Last night was neato. We filled the Mission Theater in Portland with a lot of enthusiastic debate watchers. Rep. Earl Blumenauer spoke and said nice things about us and the potentials of technology like this. Team members (including me) got a chance to take questions and show off the capabilities of the application.

So, if you were there, thank you very much for coming. It made me feel very happy.

I’m also glad that team members Jonathan Wight and Dom Sagolla were able to fly in from South Carolina and San Francisco, respectively. They’re good people.

    Thanks, Lyza! I had a blast — the energy in that room during the debate was incredible. This was an excellent first trip to Portland, can’t wait to return.
