That’s all, folks.

    THIS is what the organizers deserve for holding a conference in Baltimore during peak hurricane season.

    (Mandatory Internet disclaimers: The comment above is a joke. October/November is not peak hurricane season. Baltimore is not a frequent target of hurricanes. The organizers do not deserve this. I very much hope the conference proceeds as scheduled.)

    As luck would have it, our website is down, too. I’m working on the problem, but that will end as soon as the power goes out.
