Ok Steve, I figured out your real intention:
Get as many Palm developers out in the woods where you would get us
hopelessly lost (inspite all the techno-gear we would try to bring). Then
you would lead us into an abandoned building where you would force one of us
to stand in a corner while you hacked the rest of us into pieces...
Sounds fun, I'll see if I can schedule my flight earlier.
