I am planning on being there, for sure. I am a little confused about
what we will be watching - since the first show appears to air tonight
at 7pm. Whatever it is, I want to see it though. Watched the Nova bit on
it last night. Terribly cool.

Sounds like fun. At this point I'm going to plan on heading over.
If other folks from the LUG are going (I know a few already who
are planning to) and want to get food after the event on Monday,
find me afterwards, and we'll figure out some local game plan.

Had to check with the CS chair here but what he said is:
He'll be here both days but give a talk only on day 1. On day 2
he'll do
two Q&A sessions, before and after.

Good stuff. Which day is David going to be there? I'm
assuming not
both days.

Light a man afire, he is warm for the rest of his life.
