Powder Day

Aaaaarrrrrgghhhh!
Powder Day declared with 24 inches of fresh powder!



Aspen

One of the most wonderful places to do science is the Aspen Center for Physics, it runs a series of summer multi-week meetings and winter one week workshops which are amazingly productive and fun.

Sounds like this season will be really good, and what topics do they pick... clusters of galaxies in cosmological context, and 20th anniversary of SN 1987a. Come on! No fair!
Can someone please make an important discovery requiring a snap workshop called at short notice, somewhere central, please...

Ah well, we'll hold out breath for 2008...
