Dateline: United flights from Montery to San Francisco to Chicago to Providence, 27 February 2005
Yes, yesterday was thrilling, and man would I love to get that one on DVD. The hiking in the afternoon (the final group activity of the conference (Point Lobos) was also way cool, and it gave me a nice chance to meet some people (although the people most tied into my message approached me right after I spoke). Last night in my rather nice hotel room was all about answering the build-up of email. Then a decent night's sleep and the long road back to RI begins: I start with a driver picking me up at 5:15 am PST and get home around 10:15 pm EST, in time to watch the biggest Oscars get handed out with my spouse, who's more than a little beat manning the home front all by herself the entire week (save my very brief appearance Thursday night).
Looking forward to my own bed.

■ The trifurcation of Iraq has begun■ The Big Bang claims another victory in Egypt?
■ Follow the money, find your way to the Core
