Bill Evjen posts that this is his third TechEd. That just didn't sound right for me so I thought back and realized the first TechEd I attended was in 1993! In fact in I believe it was 1991 or 1992 I attended the pre-cursor to TechEd called the Tools Forum at the Washington State Convention Center in downtown Seattle. While I will freely admit to not attending every year I have spoken at I believe four of them and attended a few more. Hard to believe that time passes so fast...
