:lol: Clearly you are not alone in thinking this way. :iagree:

It isn't a big deal to me, just surprised that they aren't more personalized or have a QR code so that vendors could scan it and capture your info if you were interested in a product and wanted to be added to a mailing list.
I was very surprised that the badges didn't have QR codes (or something similar) for exactly this reason..
Not being able to swipe a badge to get on an exhibitor information list is very 1980's. :lol:

FYI... Make your own QR code... http://www.i-nigma.com/CreateBarcodes.html
Not sure who will be set up to read it, however.

Two questions: Is TRE "safe" for lone older man to travel at all hours to and from Arlington? What's the TRE policy on licensed carry on the train?
Regarding your second question...

I wish my Benefactor pin was bigger.
I may need to order a ball cap before I go.
