    How many future Fortune 500 CEOs will be here?

    When I say future Fortune 500 CEOs, I mean those of us under the age of say... 29?

    I know a lot people on this forum are in high school, college, graduates. Just wanted to get an idea of how many young faces I can expect to see there. I don't to be surrounded by those oldies alone. ;-) (Ok, some of you may be oldies but goodies, haha).

    Well, I'm not under 29, but I'm not that far off either. I just turned 32 in April.

    Oh great, hopefully you older folk don't pick on little old 22 year old me.

    Although, to my defense, I have been in business for the last 5 and a half years.

    Haha, well I'm glad everyone's willing to share and that there will be fellow two-three decaders there.

    Not that being older then 30 is a bad thing. ;-) I mean Jack Welch and Wareen Buffet did pretty decent with their companies, then again, Dell and Gates both started thier businesses in college. Hehe.

    to be brutally honest, I am not sure of our itinerary completely yet. We have a ton of our customers coming into town between Thursday and Sunday, so I am sure we will be busy entertaining. We aren't leaving until very very late Wednesday night though, so I am thinking we will be able to do some sightseeing then! I have never been to Chicago though, so this ought to be fun

    What I am really liking is the fact I am leaving the terrible weather behind. We have had mid 80s and low humidities lately, and now they are forecasting 1-3" of rain by Saturday and then 90 degrees and humid thru Tuesday... maybe I can fly some of your weather back home with me!

    If you like it hot and muggy, 90 degrees and humid in Chicago should be fun for you. Make sure your air works real good on your car rental!

    Okay so NOBODY else is older than me or will admit it?
