Rebecca and Bridget, this is wonderful! Thanks for helping to reinforce the amazing and welcoming character of WordCamps. As a new WordPress user, at my first WordCamp a few years ago, I sat with Chris Lema and Shay Bocks at lunch, not realizing who they were (or what Genesis was). I can honestly say that experience changed my life. I can see how it would be hard for shy people or introverts to make the most of the WordCamp experience and I applaud you for making an extra effort to be approachable and help new comers feel comfortable!
