Late tonight (or is it early tomorrow?) Mrs. Laelaps* and I will start on our drive down to North Carolina for the Science Online '09 conference! We'll be making stops at the NC Zoo and the Duke University Lemur Center along the way, but when we recover from Friday's traveling we'll be ready for the great conference sessions on Saturday and Sunday. (I will be co-moderating two back-to-back sessions on the first day; "Teaching College Science: Blogs and Beyond" and "The Web and the History of Science".)
It is going to be a very busy weekend, but I look forward to seeing old friends** and making new ones. See you all soon!
*[Mrs. Laelaps has started writing again at her blog The Olive Tree. She has kicked things off with some great recipes and heartfelt writing, and I definitely recommend that you check out her blog.]
**[One of the great folks I met last year was Kevin Z of The Other 95% and Deep Sea News. Coincidentally, I got an e-mail from him this morning telling me that the guys at DSN (true mavericks that they are) have left the Discovery Channel site and now have their own independent space on the web, deepseanews.com. Go check it out!]
oh, have fun...I'd love to see the Duke Lemur Center. Would you believe when I interviewed there, it wasn't on the schedule. Go figure. See you when you get back!
I just got here and am trying valiantly to tear myself away from the free WiFi in my hotel room. . . I've met Bora Zivkovic and gg already (the latter, as it turns out, is not just a floating pair of initials!).
Can't wait to see you again too Brian! As you are probably aware of, I can be found in the hotel bar all night tonight ;)
