Too Hot Outside, Too Cold Inside
Well, after spending the better part of last week sick with the worst flu in recent memory, I recovered just in time to fly down to Orlando, Florida, where I am writing from now. I’m attending the inexplicably named Great Lakes Symposium on VLSI, and presenting a paper here.
I am a terribly boring traveller, so I don’t really have anything exciting to relate, except the fact that I was “randomly selected” for additional searching at the border. I blame racial profiling!
I’m told that most of the communities outside of Orlando are basically run by Disney, who sell the various utilities/garbage disposal/etc. since they aren’t offered by any municipal government. A sign that we are truly in a dystopian future, if true!
In any case, I will be back in Fredericton sometime next week. I say that now based on the likelyhood I’ll update this page between now and then. (It’s not very high!)
In the meantime, wish me luck for tomorrow morning.
