Where have you been? :))

> Maybe we will go back to village life? :)

I don't believe that would be permitted.

Once a year (for 11 years now), 3 friends and I meet somewhere, and have a 'conference'. We call it the Infinity Group as it was born out of an email exchange where we were discussing infinity. Each year, we need to present something new to the group. The rest of the time is spent just goofing off. Anyway, this year was NYC. I just got back. It's one of my favorite traditions.

As luck would have it, we got this influx of traffic the night before I left. :/

Funny, I have the same sense. But, transport/travel will become less necessary as time goes on, I think. I had a class in high school called 'Global Village'. Hm.
