One of the things that pleasantly surprised us about New York last week, is how safe you feel. If you are like me (ie ill-informed most of the time {g}) and haven’t been to New York recently, then you probably still have visions of the crime ridded New York of a decade ago. Well that has drastically changed ofcourse in the last 8-10 years (and long before 9/11 in case you might have...
Whilst this news story (here) sounds a little bit suspicious (it is too early to check it on Snopes yet), it does raise an important point… if you are coming to OzFox 2007 from overseas, make sure you end up in Sydney (Australia) not those other differently spelled cities that sound similar.

But Scott guided me through it all with his...

Sounds like Wednesday night’s Sydney VFP UG was a ripper! I’m disappointed I wasn’t able to be there.
Chris Sainty has a quick rundown of his topic on his blog here plus a link to the materials he presented.
There is also a link on the UG web site:
