One of my favorite folks from the hackerspace where I spend my days just launched a new product line of high-tech fashion: Agent of Presence.
I've seen Alana (one of the two founders) at TechShop all hours of the day and night, inventing new finishes for novel materials to make them catch the light just so, or soldering circuits for the prototype handbags. And she's one of several folks I'm proud to be brushing elbows with in daily life. There's Anton, who devised an origami-inspired kayak that folds away. Or David, who makes kits for do-it-yourself diving robots.
I am so very glad I moved here, now.

In unrelated news, NPH dreams in puppet.

I have heard tell that American chestnuts are sweeter and better-tasting than European chestnuts, and that the reason chestnuts have fallen out of favor here is that Americans were unwilling to settle for the European kind. It is presumably easier to sing the praises of something no one's ever tasted, of course.
The South misses you, but it is happy to see that you are where you want to be
