Conferring

All conferences should be two days long.

1. The students spent last night "exploring" the city on their own after midnight and making new friends with people who were standing on street corners in downtown Pittsburgh.


2. During every time block there are either zero talks or two talks that I want to see.


3. I think that I'm going to avoid the boat ride this evening. Three hours on a boat with the same people who I've been spending time with since Sunday? Sounds like a trap.


4. There is about infinity food here at the conference. Not sure what I think about this. On the one hand, my registration paid for the food, so I should eat it. On the other hand, I do not need to be eating infinity food.


5. Heading home tomorrow. I'm going to be spending a lot of time in airports. My flight leaves around 4pm tomorrow, but the only airport shuttle leaves the hotel at 1pm.
