The day after tomorrow, tens of thousands of people would be running around in here, picking up freebies and avoiding salespeople. Some might even look at our demonstrations.
It was late, and I was used up. One thought sustained me; at least I wasn't assigned to the tear-down crew at the end of the show! |
