Which session tapes to splurge on from the Richmond conference? Well, if you
hate vague buzzwords/nebulous jargon, and want to hear people get down to
brass tacks talking about some really great, creative programs, I give props
to The Best Damn Things We've Ever Done.

If you're not allergic to hearing people argue while trying to devise ways
to create partnerships, the TV session had its interesting points.

If you want a good basic history of the evolution/creationism brouha, the
evolution session might be worth a listen.

But definitely don't bother with "Best in Show", because audio recordings
will not do justice to the giant nose, the glass shards and the explosions.
(Franklin Institute folks + pyromania... seriously, what's up with that?)

And I say pyromania in a good way!
