Seattle, Washington

June 16, 2004

I'm in Seattle for the next few days. The CALI conference is going on at the University of Washington Law School.

The sponsors of the conference were kind enough to include an umbrella in the conference materials.

The problem is the back of the seat in front of you when reclined will catch the top edge of the computer and tends to compress the screen.

Cool service

This is a pretty cool service that allows one to make a map of states that one has visited or countries visited.
