Description of Pictures: Two visits:

(030408) The Federal Office Systems Expo (FOSE) was the first show in the new Washington DC Convention Center. FOSE's always fascinating but this time they had an incredible amount of space and used it fairly well. I brought Tanya Shen from my office on this, her first visit to a computer show. One of the exhibitors was demoing mobile equipment and they had Segways on display which was interesting.
(030410) Another trip back to FOSE. This was mostly for a free lunch sponsored by a computer reseller which featured the motivational speaker Mark Victor Hansen. He is co-writer of those immensely popular "Chicken Soup for the Soul" books.

Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. FOSE_030408_07.JPG: Here they are laying carpet on the top floor. The FOSE exhibit was in the basement and that area was basically ready on time. The other areas had slightly longer to get ready.
2. FOSE_030408_16.JPG: Tanya
3. FOSE_030408_28.JPG: These are Segways, the computer-controlled two-wheeled person carts that have been making news since they came out a few years ago. Segways automatically adjust themselves so the person can't tip over. Since they don't have kickstands, it was interesting watching unattended devices continually adjusting themselves to stay at their proper angle.
4. FOSE_030410_18.JPG: This is Mark Victor Hansen, co-writer of those immensely popular "Chicken Soup for the Soul" books. He was a motivational speaker at the FOSE. You know the sort who's able to always be "on". He was a very entertaining guy and I enjoyed his group hug sessions!
5. FOSE_030410_56.JPG: Bruce Guthrie and Mark Victor Hansen, the author of those "Chicken Soup for the Soul" books @ FOSE.

(Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.) I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.

2003 photos: Equipment this year: I decided my Epson digital camera wasn't quite enough for what I wanted. Since I already had Compact Flash chips for it, I had to find another camera which used CF chips. That brought me to buy the Fujifilm S602 Zoom in March 2003. A great digital camera, I used it exclusively for an entire year. Trips this year: Three-week trip this year out west, mostly in Utah. Number of photos taken this year: 68,000.
