islands that go boom

ok, I confess, I am now lounging on a small mediterranean island



Santorini to be specific.
(I hope, since I am using the movable type "scheduling" function, and am confidentially anticipating all flights and connections flew and connected)

I am not just lounging by the pool, indeed I suspect and fear I may never see a pool or beach during my stay; I am, rather, at the Extreme Solar Systems Conference, where I am also running the "Extreme Habitability" workshop. Should be fun.

I'll post news, if and when I can. No idea what internet facilities I will find.
There are pre-meeting rumours that some juicy results might be announced here.
