I can't make the weekend of 10th/11th - on "vacation" up in northern NH.

But don't plan on my behalf :)

There's always the 12th for those who'll be away during saturday and sunday :)

Gone from the 9th - 12th... :(

LOL. Yeah - score. Wasn't my idea - it was my mother-in-law's gift to us for Christmas. Four days of North Conway, NH... :(

Four days. North Conway. With kids. And Storyland.

Woooo!

I just got an offer for a job up in Cambridge, and they want me to start May 9th! Gave notice this morning, and it's looking like in two or three weeks I might be able to come out and play on a somewhat regular basis! :D

Exciting!

...is it May yet?

It's a lot of server hardware work, basically making sure the things that make the internet go actually work before being crammed into a datacenter somewhere. Should be pretty interesting!

Knowing how opposed i am to not taking any risks in life, i still wouldn't go there if i were you.

The chances of you being used as a political pawn is very high depending on the way the political wind is blowing on that day. Also, you can't take pics of anything that isn't approved. You are constantly followed by their staff. They put on shows for you and don't let you see the real nitty gritty.

But, if you insist on going, i'd suggest reading this book: http://www.amazon.com …TF8&qid=1303396​286&sr=8-1 (external link)

It's very insightful to the mindset of the government and their political posturing.

yep yep I know how it is there, a lot of research etc has gone into it. I've read that book actually and another one. Luckily the restrictions on US tourism has be laxed a bit, but it's still a bit crazy. Only live once ;)
