It was true honor to meet you. I told Bryan that I would take some extra pictures off Seattle and Vancouver when I'm there next month. Hopefully they'll help you with some convincing as well. My Webvisions recap turned in to a short novel. So, in case you don't get all the way through it I wanted you to see this... <blockquote>On my walk back to the hotel I had a brief, but important conversation with Dan Rubin. In the short amount of time we had, we talked about the risk factor inherent in achieving great things as designers. I hope to write more about this in coming weeks as I have a feeling that this conversation, as casual as it seemed at the time, is going to be the one that has the greatest impact on my life in the coming months. Thanks, Dan.</blockquote> It is amazing how much you can talk about in 2 blocks with the right person. P.S. Thanks again for "watching" my bag ;) Dan, you are definitely the man.

Obviously you've been a huge design inspiration to me in the past. Hope to see you around at future conferences and hopefully you'll make it up to Seattle, if not to live than at least to visit.
