Does this mean that there will be food available at the Expo for those of us who don't eat animal carcasses?

What fun - stuck in an area I didn't know (vanpooled from the hotel there), rather hungry, with one lunch option that I prefer not to eat. The folks who prepared lunch were nice enough, but clueless as to why I might prefer not to eat red meat. It took a while to convince them to bring cheese grinders for the next day; finally other folks gently complained as well, and they accomodated our curious request. And if you think I'm bitching about that, don't dare ask me (or my back) what I thought of the lecture room seats. You know, the ones that are designed to keep people alert while watching films of a companies products - the ones I spent hours and hours sitting in (groan)...

They refer to an outlay as "Steve compatible". I have not seen Steve get dogmatic about it, but NeXT hosting food ensures that there will be vegetarian stuff. Mark R. Thomsen
