It wasn't like that.

We sat around long tables and talked.  No one had more than five
minutes to do any kind of projected presentation thing.

Croquet was mentioned in passing but never shown.

Just wanting to keep the picture at least a little bit accurate.

There's a wiki page with official notes, links to photographs Guido
snapped with his cell phone (I'm disguised as a round looking man with
shaggy gray hair).
