Thanks for the opportunity and interview.

... still catching up after a wonderful visit to Bengaluru. Got a chance to 
look around the city a bit. For more interesting than just seeing tourist sites 
- like eating lunch at the Orion Mall food court than a fancy restaurant.

My keynote should be online soon and I can send a note when it is.

I like to learn and meet people  Not so much the tourist stuff though a fort 
and the like could be interesting. I like to get a sense of the place.

This is last minute so need to make sure I can make it work. (Oh, I also need 
to put together a new talk). The conference schedule is 
http://icce-asia2017.org/programoutline.html.

Hmm .,.. the weather doesn't seem very different from Boston. (unlike Mumbai).

I’m not – but what dates, around the event, which is October 5-7?  

And what would you prefer to do?  Old forts and other such historic places?  
The beach (not a good idea as it is the monsoon)?

Anywhere at all in India is an under two hour (and cheap!) flight from 
Bangalore so you have the whole country open to you – but depends on what your 
tastes are.

Cold and rainy. With the added disadvantage of having to more or less swim 
across some roads in the city if there’s too heavy a rain.  Fun :)

If you have just a day or two more you might do Mysore - there’s a lovely 
garden, a bird sanctuary, an old fort (though in ruins after tipu sultan came 
out on the wrong side of his little argument with the Brits) and some other 
odds and ends.

I like to learn and meet people  Not so much the tourist stuff though a fort 
and the like could be interesting. I like to get a sense of the place.

This is last minute so need to make sure I can make it work. (Oh, I also need 
to put together a new talk). The conference schedule is 
http://icce-asia2017.org/programoutline.html.

Hmm .,.. the weather doesn't seem very different from Boston. (unlike Mumbai).

I’m not – but what dates, around the event, which is October 5-7?  

And what would you prefer to do?  Old forts and other such historic places?  
The beach (not a good idea as it is the monsoon)?

Anywhere at all in India is an under two hour (and cheap!) flight from 
Bangalore so you have the whole country open to you – but depends on what your

(which is preferred).

I've been asked to give a keynote at http://www.icce-asia2017.org/ and trying 
to see if I can work out my schedule. Any list members attending? Other 
suggestions for while I’m there?
