Ellen -- sadly,...Thanks to all for the congrats. <br /><br />Ellen -- sadly, they didn't decide (or at least let me know) until the day before the conference... I suppose if I had known more in advance it could have inspired me to go. But don't worry -- I was someplace else warm and wonderful for the week, spending time with the family.Michael Mitzenmacherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02161161032642563814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8890204.post-29798541922177104302009-08-24T09:06:15.905-04:002009-08-24T09:06:15.905-04:00Too bad that wasn't enough to get you to Barce...Too bad that wasn't enough to get you to Barcelona.
