Do I believe that Senator Nelson's plane had engine trouble? No. But a lot of other people showed up including me. I thought the mood somber but it was great to see old friends and glare at enemies. Mary Barley always looks great so did Eric Draper but he is such a creep. Mary I like. Should have gotten a photo of her, never mind will get one off of google images.

I thought the conference went well. I did pay attention. I had an interesting conversation with distinguished Scientist Larry Brand. So many scientists, so little time. Some people made large circles of avoidance around me, some were kind.

| Larry Brand says: "I am interested in the amount of genetic variability and differentiation that exists within and among populations of a species of algae, and the extent to which it allows species to adapt genetically to varying environmental conditions, thus influencing its ecological niche." ...uhh Me too Larry! |
