Fun stuff later this week. Hopefully.

Edit: No disrespect to those who attended, but every time I see the word Gaylaxicon (http://www.gaylaxicon2009.org) in print, I can't help thinking that they missed out on an obvious sponsorship deal with the manufacturers of that chocolate that makes you poo...

my country's knackered, language abuse, techie badness, bad science, e-mail, friends, links
