We're now in panel discussions, so there's no live streaming.

Thoughts...

I had the pleasure of recommending one of the EIR's, and in looking at the other 4 EIR's... Kick ass people. All from a broad range of the Tech industry.. Two from the Silicon Valley scene.

The people from USCIS they they've chosen to staff the program are really impressive. I've taken to walking up to a number of them and thanked them for their service. It truly is a thankless job. After this program we should all send them a thank you card. :)

The USCIS person that's heading up the program reports to the head of USCIS, so there's a good chance that changes can be instituted.

The mission is to change and revamp everything that can be changed and revamped without going to congress to change the law.

I've had a couple of talks with the White House staffers on point for this issue, and they are extremely impressive.

I've been impressed by what a hard job it must be to be an immigration official. If you're right and you process a visa application right... Who cares. I you're wrong... You face anger and rage.

Well, good thing that plenty of them abuse their position of power then. That way, they're at least entertained.

(I've run the USCIS gauntlet before it was USCIS, to be fair. Back in '99. And yet, I don't see much evidence of change)
