I’m back from the AAAS Forum on Science and Technology Policy, which brought together an incredible group of speakers and moderators. I remain humbled and honored to have been involved and will have details on this spectacular event next week.
In the mean time, I must figure out what to do without my Air, which sadly didn’t make it back from the District.

That’s terrible! Did you lose a lot of work?
With all the reviewing of the MacBook Air you’ve provided, maybe they’ll replace your machine? I hope so!
If it’s any consolation, I heard you were terrific at the Forum

As for sea cucumbers, well, they’re really delicious braised with oyster sauce and served over a bed of mustard green (Chinese dish). Aloha.
