...from the look of the booths in the now only 2 partially used halls (many gaps, unfilled booths, booths filled with non-outdoor's sporting goods associated vendors)and lack of attendees (remember the weekend days when folks couldn't move in the aisles?) some marketing genius in the ISE organization may be considering his/her professional career options after the ISE.
I worked the entire show in FFF Booths, Manufacturer's Booths, a Lodge Booth, and Retail Booths for over 10 years when the show was in San Mateo, 3 years at the Moscone Center in SF, and then back in San Mateo...this year's effort by the ISE staff provided less of an experience than the 1st show I attended in 1978.
