I spent today with the folks of the Mountains & Plains Parapros at their conference held on the campus of Regis University in Denver. After lunch I gave my Tech Terms presentation to a wonderful group of library staff. My favority question is whether I could equate the MCP (Master Control Program) from the movie Tron with a Firewall. I answered that he was more of an OS but had a built in firewall. Photos of the campus and the conference can be found in Flickr.
