We'll have an open thread for each day of the conference. Conference-goers will have wireless Internet, and we'll encourage (as much as possible) live commenting on the presentations. Bryce,

Hope you can make it to a FAIR conference someday to see what actually goes on, rather than relying on the uninformed opinions of others. Nick,

Your last comment fell short of the apology I think Matt Brown and FAIR deserve, considering the sarcastic tone in your first comment.

Hope you can make it to a FAIR conference someday to see what actually goes on, rather than relying on the uninformed opinions of others.

If not for my past experience with the source, I would have dismissed it entirely. I’m delighted to hear it’s “untrue drivel,” Matthew!

If you would like to participate this way, send an email to <strong><font color="blue">streaming (AT) fairlds (DOT) org</font></strong> for more information. If the streaming works to your satisfaction, we would hope that you will make an after-the-fact $25 donation to FAIR to help cover our costs. We aren't going to charge up-front for this as the streaming this year will be a test and we may have technical difficulties.

AZ is nice but we always miss these types of events.

FAIR doesn't "pre-screen" presentations, and presenters are responsible for the content of their own presentations. (I haven't talked to Matthew about what he will be saying, nor have I seen an advance copy of his presentation.) If you do decide to come to the conference (and I hope you do), look me up. It would be good to meet you in person. -Allen Nick,

That ought to be.....oh, let's just say "remarkable."

I wish I could. I would like to hear Darius and Margaret. "Humble Apologetics" by Dan - now that is an interesting topic. May I steal the title? And of course, I would make a point to say hi to Blake. My wife says I really ought to. Hey, I will be looking for the live-blogging action. I can’t go. I wish I could.
