Chris:

James here.  From a purely selfish point of view, the Drools Boot Camp  
in Dallas followed by the October Rules Fest would be a GREAT  
opportunity for you not only to learn from the best Drools personnel,  
but also to learn from the absolute best in the business for rulebased  
systems.  This is, to my knowledge, this is the  ONLY conference  
dedicated to the practicing rulebase technical person.  I really  
believe that you can learn more at DBC/ORF in a week than you could at  
10 of the vendor schools.

Where else would you get a chance to listen to Dr. Charles Forgy, Gary  
Riley, Tom Cooper, Dr. Richard Hicks, Paul Vincent, Carlos Seranno- 
Morales, Dr. Daniel Levine, John Zachman and many, many others in one  
week?  A seminar with ANY of these would cost more than the $500 that  
you would pay for ORf.  Most techies go through life and NEVER get to  
meet even one of these guys.  Not only that, you will get to hear them  
discuss among themselves and with the attendees all of the problems  
that are cropping up all over the world and possible solutions.  Where  
else would you get to ask Dr. Forgy questions, one-on-one, about the  
NEW algorithm called TECH that is at least 10 times faster than his  
Rete 2 / III?  Or to get into details with him about parallel  
rulebased systems?

And, you never know - this could be the last ORF.  There might not be  
another one like this.  Perhaps this sounds self-serving, but I can't  
stress enough the importance of attending NOW and not putting this off  
until another time.  There might never be another time like this with  
this particular cast of speakers.

"If I have seen a little further it is by standing on the shoulders of  
giants."
Sir Isaac Newton in a letter to Robert Hooke, 5 Feb 1676

Come to October Rules Fest and stand on the shoulders of the Giants of  
the industry; if only for a week.
