Saluting the Menu Maven

[Dennis Brown]

This is a good idea.

One item that comes to mind for every conference is that the author  
usually has a prepared monologue of what they are going to present at  
the conference.  I find it very choppy and hard to read in the broken  
up conference format.  I have taken to editing the conference log to  
put the monologue back into a regular paragraph style.  It becomes  
like a new tutorial card in the stack that way.  It would be nice if  
the author was able to put in the monologue as intended into the  
stack (with corrections).
