Flying out tonight (Saturday) for Capetown, South Africa and the world's biggest mining conference that I'll kick-off keynote Tuesday morning.

Brutal sked way out due to weather in Dulles: Indy to Dulles tonight, then overnight to Frankfurt, then quickie to London, and then overnight direct to Capetown. Ouch!

Trying Skype seriously on this trip with family. We've got it up and working throughout the house.

I will be doing email off my BB and laptop when connected, but people need to consider me largely out of pocket until next Friday.
