Monday I spent all day watching talks on dynamic programming from some amazing people.

Yesterday I saw (the) Guy Steele Jr. and (the) Dick Gabriel give one of the best talks I've ever seen. I also saw James Gosling and Bertrand Meyer (with Steele and others) talk. (I also missed Kathy Sierra--but hey, lots of old smart guys > Sierra)

Today I'm (just about to) seeing THE Fred Brooks Jr, THE John McCarthy, and the (someday to be strong/emphasis) Ward Cunningham (sorry Ward, I love ya, but you're not up to Brooks or McCarthy).

So... Why aren't you here?
