Anyone attending the conference next month?

I usually go for a couple of days to see the vendor expo and check out all the new over-hyped, over-marketed products and services. There are lots of demos and presentations which you can always tell are super-serious and legitimate because there's a big screen, a terminal session, black background, green text, and the speaker is talking about "cyber" and "threat analytics" with "next-gen" whatever.
I don't even bother to get the free t-shirts or blinky pens anymore (with some exceptions if I respect the vendor). It's mostly cheap swag anyway.
And then around 3 in the afternoon, long lines start forming at some booths, attractive women (who are not working as booth professionals) become more numerous, and you realize that the popcorn machines have converted into free alcohol dispensaries.
