- HOD can be both a way to collectively express our values and for groups to define what they stand for. In some cases they express what they won't stand for.
- There is a delicate balance between the AAPA and Specialty Organizations. Nobody wants to weaken our National Organization but no group wants to give up their autonomy in the process.
- Social Media continues to be a strong tool. There has been a strong independent streak in this year's twitterati and bloggers. The evidence is in the fact that this is an independent blog without a specific editorial focus or limitation and there is no official blog. Power to the people to continue the PA conversation. Congratulations to Jim Anderson on this idea.
- The sheer numbers of this conference likely means that we will see Vegas again.
It is not too late to sign up for the APACVS Critical Care Conference in DC June 22-25, 2011.

CardioVision - the APACVS journal is out today. President Jonathan Sobel writes about our latest efforts and I write about understanding, preventing, and treating hospital complications.

Until next year I will see you on the Internet where I maintain the APACVS Facebook page, tweet, contribute to the APACVS journal, participate in Clinician 1 and the PA Forum, and generally waste a lot of time.
Good night and good luck.
