You can39。t e in here. Side entrance, please. I stood in line again, this time behind Puffa jackets and Newsweek journalists, waiting to collect my orange badge. Once inside.

An acquaintance invited me to a dinner he was hosting: There are people I39。d like you to meet. The greenbadged Forum employee stopped me at the door. This is a participants39。 dinner.
