I've told you about all the stuff that goes on outside of the "official" Davos events--the breakfasts, the lunches, the cocktails, the dinners, the nightcaps, the skiing, the snow-shoeing, the ice-driving--all put on by corporations and countries who would like to get to know you better and give you some experiences to remember them by. And I've told you how my email box got so full of invitations to these things in the weeks leading up to the conference that I couldn't even open all of them, let alone RSVP or attend.
