celine (Hagbard Celine):


I'm on the move. Catch me if you can.

Travel Plans:

May 7-9:   Steer Roast
           Senior House, Boston

May 19-21: Virtual Reality Conference
           Fairmont Hotel, San Jose

May 24-27: Comdex
           Georgia World Congress Center, Atlanta

Jun 23-26: World Conference on Educational Multimedia and Hypermedia
           Hyatt Hotel, Orlando

Jul ??-??: SIGGRAPH
           Anaheim Convention Center, Anaheim

Sep 18-22: Virtual Reality Annual International Symposium
           Seattle

I'm convinced conferences are the best way to make money in multimedia
these days. Why sell a product when you can just call a bunch of
vendors and put on a conference? Yecch. At least I'm getting paid to
sit through all these (with the exception of steer roast, of course).

Projects:

Finish the X version of titan. Yes, I'm still working on it.

Learn some languages. Spanish, Russian, Japanese. Maybe a continental
language (other than German).

Beat 19 diabolical computer players at expert skill level in a small
dense random universe in Spaceward Ho! (version 3.0). Okay, so this
isn't all that likely.

Get olc/olta, Kerberos, and Zephyr built and up on the local sun shop
(this time with official backing), and slay the current problem
tracking system (it runs on CMS, ugh!) residing on the ES/9000.

Lifetime Goal:

"The advancement of science and scientific knowledge."

Don't ask me. It wasn't my idea.

[those of you back here, enjoy the storm over the weekend...it sounds
like a biggie, which I'll unfortunately miss :-(

Attention!

A monk asked Kyo-rin: What was the meaning of the Patriarch's
coming West? 

Kyo-rin said: To meditate a long time and become weary.

Beautification

The Pennsylvania Legislature voted to add the term "aotumotive
dismantler and recycler" to the state statutes.  It replaces the word
"junkyard."
