Profile
Dave Bacon is a theoretical ski bum who is also a pseudo professor. His research is on quantum computing, his scientific passions extend to everything in physics, mathematics, computer science and beyond, and his personal pleasures include making wine, playing poker, skiing, camping, and daydreaming (although not all of those at the same time.)
Nothing he says on this blog should be construed as having anything to do with his employer or his dog.

Some colleagues of mine in my department and some others are headed up to Dartmouth tomorrow for some NSF grant-writing workshop. I managed to get an NSF grant about 8 years ago - and vowed to never repeat the nightmare.
