exactly -- The first lady to come out seemed so lost and literally said something like "more clouds" and "more 9's on uptime" for 2017. Thats when I clicked off...

Clicking you back on, "the first lady to come out" was Diane Greene, the SVP of Google Cloud.
Hey Doug -- I see what you are doing, and I reject the premise. Your tone implies that @meddalpal and I have somehow made a sexist remark by referring to a presenter as "the first lady to come out."

She was the first lady to come out, and I would imagine that many watching did not know who she was. Had it been a guy I would have said "That first dude on stage was a train-wreck of a presenter."

There is sexism in the world, but it is not here.
