What a great experience it was to be a part of that. I remember helping to serve as "Vanna White" for the Interoperdy game running the control panel. Thanks for the memories!

Well, OK, thinking about it, there was that time when Synopsys offered a $1000 travel voucher when it sponsored one of the first interoperability booths. Can’t remember the year, but I wonder where the $1K took someone. See you in a few weeks, baring any more plane delays for you! -Dennis Karen,

I remember the Escher theme in the background. I remember going to legal to get song lyrics approved, and sitting on the floor at DAC trying to fix the game that the shipper dropped kicked. But more than anything I remember that we were setting a precedence to go out publicly in a way no one had done before and talk about standards and interoperability on a public stage. 10 years later we are still singing "Interoperty Baby ooooh oooh oooh ooh" I guess for the 10 year anniversary we need to re-release 'My Flows in Jeopardy" and digitally remaster it.
