Perhaps someone would fill me in on the basics.  I understand the 
theory, and have read several articles on the essentials of 
authentification theory, but know nothing of the specifics.

Do we generate our pairs before the meeting, and bring them with us?  
The only one on the group I have known for several years is Andy, though 
I am able to bring id. (Driver's licence and passport)  Is that sufficient?
