Please remember the rules:
* 3 mins (and there will be a bell/gong)
* No slides, minimal "crib notes"
* Focus on what's important, but also complete
* HAVE FUN with it! (see some of the titles; several of your fellow
speakers plan to)

We'll have a guest, so this is a great opportunity to show off the
coolness of TWC! ;)
