I will post about this, but I just have to share what an incredibly exciting day I am having. Only fellow stackers would likely see this as exciting. Teaser- I'm in the same room as Lyn Alden, Jeff Booth, and Preston Pysh. Am I talking to them? Are you kidding? I'm tongue tied and in awe. I know we aren't supposed to look up to other bitcoiners, but it's difficult. That's my teaser. I have a long trip home and then I'll make a full post.

Nice! Well I love reading YOUR writing, so I hope you were confident and content in your giddiness.

Thanks for the kind words. I did enjoy it very much. I have never been exposed to the private equity/rich guy world of bitcoin, except for the occasional Master Of The Universe sitting at the next barstool at PubKey.

The Stacker News Stacker of the Year bows to no one.

I was trying to tell that to everybody. I had my badge on and everything. They appeared not to give a crap.

You know, I really suck at being able to tell whether a joke I might make comes across over text. Just for clarification, I did not wear a badge or identify myself as stacker of the year today. That goes without saying, right? Right? I don't have the personality of a good SN ambassador. @realBitcoinDog or @Coinsreporter or @cryotosensei would do better in these settings. Promotion is important.

I would’ve absolutely bullied the three of them into doing an AMA!

I would’ve told Lyn that I got her Broken Money editor @denlillaapan onto SN so she HAS to do an AMA!

I would tell her I broke the news on ~BooksAndArticles that she was looking for Beta readers for fiction articles!

I would’ve told them all of this, and that @GrayRuby IS STUPID STUPID MAN

”Have you heard of the latest territory ~HealthAndFitness?”

That's what I'm talking about!

Obviously, you weren't wearing a Stacker of the Year badge. Coins hasn't sent out the hardware, yet.

I know. You feel like you know them. You don't!

So, was the image of them in your mind the same as what you met? Or was reality completely different?

For the most part, I liked them all before today, and I like them even more now. Watching them mingle and chat with people they don't know gives another perspective. Lyn Alden, Jeff Booth, and Preston Pysh are all intelligent, interesting people.
