All set up and running. After making a couple wrong turns trying to find the hotel (stupid Mapquest -- there IS no Emperor Blvd!) -- we're here. I don't have numbers yet, but there's people all over the first floor of the lovely Sheraton Imperial Hotel and Conference Center (Teach? I don't see you anywhere).

First up, at 2pm EST, is the first of 5 "Issues Forums." There's a number going on at a time, so participants pick one and attend it. First up for me is the "Budget and Taxes" forum. It's to be moderated by Tom Fetzer, former Mayor of Raleigh.

A few quotes from his introduction:

No matter what legislators say, it's where you spend your money that defines where you priorities are.

Why does government exist? To serve us -- to serve the people.
