Well, here we are in Nashville. I have not been to registration yet, though. The airline lost half of my luggage - the half with the certificates in it. Not to worry, I imagine that Nashville has a Kinko's somewhere close if it comes to that. I hadto book into a hotel a few blocks away because the Renaisance was full when I called. The good news is that the internet is free here. the bad news is that I had to hunt for a room with a live port.
Looking at the stats today it looks like everyone who reads the blog is a) here, and b) is too cheap to pony up ten bucks a day for access. I don't blame them. It's like charging a buck for a phone call when everyone has cell phones. Hotels, they must work from a veryt different business model.
Anyway we are here and looking forward to a grand time. Look for me. I'll be the one in jeans and an increasingly rumpled shirt.
