    Well we could always have just sat down, you know (although, at the prices in the Spoke Club, perhaps not).

    And yes, the bill was indeed settled - by none other than Chris Clarke, bless 'im. But I did buy him a cup of cocoa at *bux to compensate :-)

    Good to see you tonight Mathew. Thanks again for doing this.

    Mathew,
    The questions and reponse to you said to me that the PR community is determined to figure out how to operate within the new rules of blogging in order to develop a positive relationship from the outset. Bloggers and PR folks should have a mutually beneficial relationship - if we work to understand the needs of the bloggers. Your presentation provided us with great insight into this.
    Thanks for joining us. You definitely contributed to making the Toronto communications community smarter.

    Hi Mathew,
    Thank you for being so generous with your time, for your insightful commentary and willingness to indulge us PR folks.
    Best bit of the night was when you were asked about dodgy pitches you had received. There were a few very nervous looks going around the room from the agency types!

    It was my pleasure, Ed. I enjoyed all of the questions -- even the one about the dodgy pitches, although I felt a little awkward with that one :-)

    "Inimitable" - gosh. Thanks. At least you didn't say "inimical", as one friend once did :-) I've never been entirely sure quite whether he really knew what he meant.

    Definitely inimitable, Michael -- not at all inimical :-)
