Hijacking, Rain, and Posters

Posted on April 21, 2009 by fibo

Well, I made it to DC! I’m not generally a nervous passenger on flights, but first news today: Plane Hijacking in the Bahamas! Naturally, I began brushing up on my “recover control of the plane” skills.

My flight was uneventful, at best. But, now I find myself in a beautiful, historic, and wet capital city. I literally stared at the White House for about 8 minutes. So much history!
I’ve just spent the last 1.5 hours perusing the poster session here at the magnificent DC Convention Center (notice image – top left). Lot’s of smiling presenters giving their, “here’s what I’m doing to change the world” talk. The rumble of greetings, contemplation, and theoretical bliss hovers in the small browsing area. A solid 100 to 150 attending. Not bad for my first session. Not bad.

Well, dinner calls. More exciting updates from NCTM 2009 to follow!

P.S. – Follow me on Twitter _levi_ (yes, those are underscores)
