Going to Howard Brinton's StarPower conference in Orlando this week?

Just checking to see who else will be attending Howard Brinton's StarPower conference in Orlando this week. Runs from Wednesday July 23rd to Saturday July 26th at Grande Lakes. Perhaps ActiveRainers attending would like to get together for coffee one morning? There are lots of evening activities, so that might not work as well.

Online communication is great, but it's lots of fun to meet other Rainers. Orlando was the site of an early meeting of some AR people more than a year ago, and was lots of fun.

Who's coming?
