Positive Operator Reviews on PSAI's Virtual Convention…continued from page 9

eliminating the list of all sessions for the entire conference.

This inaugural event was a success due to the hard work and
enthusiasm of everyone in the PSAI. The next event and the
one after that will continue to build upon the success and the
"lessons learned" from previous events.

asked me a year ago what "Zoom" was, I would have replied,
"Isn't that the noise that an airplane makes when it takes off?"
I was so nervous before that first call in March, but afterwards
I realized it was not that bad and that I learned a lot. Now,
roughly 40–50 Zoom calls later, I love that technology. So it
