- "My GPS PDA can't find my room, and I have to pee."
- "If I sat next to a gorgeous woman in the general session, can I count that as a date?"
- "As you can see, holographic diffraction with an LCOS pico-mirror array yields an avatar with very realistic knockers."
- "I don't care if lolcats is technically Geek Speak. It's freakin' creepy!"
- "Gee, if I'd've known we were *all* gonna be here anyway, I wouldn't have bothered postponing the Greater Dover Recreational Segwayers Club March meeting!"
