I know several of you are going, but I wanted to start a thread here to keep track of who is going to PASS 2011 so that I can say hi to everyone there.

So who is going to PASS Summit 2011 in Seattle?

ME!

I've seen Bill and Dinakar so far. I assume I'll see Gail at the WIT Luncheon tomorrow or sooner hopefully. Haven't spotted Mladen, Rob, or Mark yet.

Should we all meet up somewhere? Will the guys be attending the WIT Luncheon tomorrow?

Oh and the WIT Luncheon is Thursday.

I'll try to get some pics. I also spotted Mladen finally, yes he exists, and yes he's exactly like you'd expect him to be.

Rob, you look great in a kilt! You were on your way to get your picture taken, and I was in the mass crowd exiting the keynote. Cya at the WIT Luncheon.

You mean just like Harpo Marx, trench coat and horn, chasing after every woman he sees?

Here is a model of Tara: https://yfrog.com/kjkwbuhj

The hair color is different, but otherwise just like her.

Taken at Women in Technology (WIT) luncheon. Hopefully more will follow.

Lol! I'll need to startup my diet again.

I'm glad that the picture you posted here as a "model" for me isn't the one where you are touching her chest.

Yes, that was a kilt. They do SQLKilt at PASS Summit, if you hit the main PASS website there should be pictures of the SQLKilt group. I somehow ended up next to Buck Woody, and I'm still trying to recover from it.
