Found
| | He provides a number of answers. |
| | Here's a more personal one. Phil is the guy who got me back into full-time journalism after decades away from it, and for that I'll always be grateful. |
| | And while I'm happy for all he's doing for Nicagagua (and geekery, and much more), I miss seeing him stateside. Back when both Phil and Linux Journal made its home in Seattle I traveled up there frequenly and enjoyed every minute of it. |
| | Working for LJ is still as fun as it ever was, but there's only one fyl. |
| | Gotta add Nicaragua to the itinerary. |

Progress
| | [Later...] David Wallace points out that the above link goes to a login page. I don't remember what the original post was, so the context is lost. But I'm leaving the post up, just in case something starts to make sense. Not counting on it, though. |
Under the hipdar
| | Yet I'm making more conference progress than ever at events that don't make the list. These include the ones over on the left there, plus a few more. |
| | It's interesting to actually Get Stuff Done, rather than the usual. |
The >$128,000 question
| | The biggest why-opener in our 4-day visit to England was the brutal exchange rate. We seem to have chosen a bad time to visit, with the dollar worth less than half a pound. London is expensive to begin with, but ... jeez. Even if you put a $ instead of a £ sign in front of the prices, they looked high. A little bottle of water cost $5. A lousy lunch at a faux fifties hamburger joint inside Harrod's came to more than $100. |
| | As I look toward more international travel in the next year, the prospect of a tanking dollar is an unfun prospect. |
| | The big question is: why? Not that I can do anything about it. Just, y'know. Wondering. |
Catching up
| | I'm back home. The trip was long, but had its fun parts. Watch here for some remarkable pictures from aloft of the U.K. Greenland and parts of Canada and The West. |
| | Meanwhile, I have many errands to run and stuff to catch up on. If you're among the many waiting for me to get back with you, stay tuned. |
