New Orleans Suffers a Series of Microsoft Blows

I was pleased as Planter's Punch when I heard Microsoft was planning to have Tech-Ed in New Orleans next year. What a great way to help get this city back on its feet. Unfortunately, the city and its airport aren't recovered enough to handle the crowds, so Microsoft had to bow out of Tech-Ed and two other shows. While I may be sad, my liver sure is happy.
