I'll have to respectfully disagree with you here, Norm.  This is exactly
why the "dude" is at the show, to positively reflect on his company.  If
he isn't doing that, then the wrong person is in the booth.  If he
hasn't read what his company is saying to the two largest trade mags 
about his product, he shouldn't be telling the public something different.
