Thanks so much! My best moment was getting to speak on the big stage, and then experiencing the fantastic reaction, both in person and online, to my talk.

And most especially what happened on Twitter when one person (who was not at TAM!) made a series of snide remarks about one point I made in the talk, and many different skeptics came to my defense. It was a sight to behold.

Oh, you can also see many other blog write-ups about TAM2012 at Lanyrd. If there are any not listed there that you know of, let me know and I'll add them.

It was an excellent talk, Tim.

I was already considering it, but that series of tweets from that person was what finally convinced me to stop following him.
