Hi all!
I guess closing haiku have become a “tradition.” I’m happy to continue it, with your indulgence. Enjoy.
Cheers!

Haiku: I’m thinking.
Juices beginning to flow;

Thank you presenters!

Next year: Self-cloning?
Partnerships thrive, when
Value walks a two-way street;
And links common cause.
Learn a new language.
From partners a network grows.
Square the nodes: find strength.
Some ask the question:
“Can for free live with for fee?”

Start at the finish.
Engage the learner.
Gain control by ceding it.
Usage adds value.
