jtidwell (Jenifer P. Tidwell):
Between Friday morning and Monday afternoon, I will be at the
Canadian Ski Marathon with a random group of people from the Media Lab
and elsewhere. (Pascal, Alan Blount, Noah Greenberg, etc.) For all
of you who have asked me about it, it is a wilderness/rural trail, 100
miles long, stretching sort of between Montreal and Ottawa through the
snow-covered Quebec backcountry.
No, I will not ski all 100 miles. We can do up to 50 the first
day, and up to 50 the second... (Only the really nutso skiers get up at
4 AM to do the whole thing. The ones who do all 100 and come back
the next year get to do it with a 5-kg pack. The ones who come back
yet again get a 5-kg pack _and_ have to spend Saturday night outside in
the tent that they carried with them.) I plan on doing 20 the first
day and either 20 or 30 the next.
This is what I've been babbling about for a couple of months now.
This is why I'm missing 6.033 and 7.01 on Friday and Monday.
This is why I had XC skis in the SIPB office on Thursday.
ANY MORE QUESTIONS????

klbrubak (Kaye L Brubaker):
"The mathematician is at an advantage because the object of
his common sense is ... the common sense itself, i.e., the
logic of the human thinking process.... The physical scientist's
common sense must also embrace the 'logic' of the external
physical world, i.e., an intuition for the 'thinking process'
of nature which often seems strange and contrary to what
our own logic expects."

Transition or Destiny?" WRR 22:180S

slippery (Samuel A Lippert):
Touch is the most fundamental sense. A baby experiences it, all over,
before he is born and long before he learns to use sight, hearing, or
taste, and no human ever ceases to need it. Keep your children short
on pocket money- but long on hugs.

therese (Suntioinen Therese M.):
Don't pull too hard, like a kite in the wind
You'll break the string, when I reel you in
Don't take off flying all on your own
When you finally come knocking, there'll be nobody home
Nobody Home
