Dear #12NTC - The NTC concluded last night, and then began the fun (and I am not being sarcastic here) of answering the question, "How'd it go?" So, my answer to all those questions was a pretty resounding "Awesome! This is the most fun I have had at the NTC!" As usual, I leave the NTC with many more ideas (and questions!)
