PDC History -- Number 9 for Me

Looking at the nifty little PDC history app that Adam Nathan put together, I realize that PDC05 is my ninth PDC.

I missed the first Windows 3.1 PDC, because I wasn't a hardcore Windows developer yet. Rene' was pregnant in 1992, and we went to San Francisco together for the Win32 PDC. My streak has one interruption - I mised the "Viper" PDC in Los Angeles because the company I worked for had a policy -- get this -- that said you could only go to conferences for one or two days. They were an incredibly stupid company (I fired them shortly afterwards.)
