To get WHAT up? The organ or the OS? ;-) Seriously, though, most trade shows are really a battle for attendees' attention. Now, maybe it's just the horrible, awful primal nature of the human species, but any male who doesn't at least glance at an attractive woman in a revealing costume probably DOES have some sort of problem. (Fortunately, most computer geeks are very much, er, fully functional, as Brent Spiner would say. Perhaps that's why there are so many of us.) The "booth bunny" thing is all in good fun, and the women I know who have done booth duty understand this. Some of them -- horror of horrors! -- even enjoy the attention they get from all the geeks. ;-) --Brett To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
