A Great Day

(originally posted at bigbadgeek.com)

the conference was great.  seeing klaus heiss speak was a joy.  also; meeting taylor dinerman was great - i look forward to future run-ins with him and his folk.

i also met elaine walker.

in the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy i recall arthur dent describing tricia mcmillian ("trillian") as beautiful and devastatingly intelligent.

elaine is not unlike that. :)

also; the presentation on GPS by the principal engineer of the FAA was insightful.  unfortunately i missed half of pascal lee's presentation on the mars on earth project - as i was pulled into a work issue.

unfortunately, ed belbruno couldn't make it - he's a professor of applied mathematics at princeton.

but all in all, the day was great.
