Any time I get to see Jewri Ellsworth, Ward Christenson, you (Eugene), and all the others is great. I hope that we can do it again, although given my travel schedule that may be hard. The Supercomputing Conference was also fun. Bigger than the computer architecture conferences I usually go to. Odd in some ways - an exhibit floor, where most of the exhibitors are schools or national labs? The supercomputing guys certainly know how to throw a party. Our tax dollars at work? I hope to make a few SC09 inspired comp.arch posts, as time permits - probablt over Thanksgiving.

I note the amusing name typos. I need to forward a note of thanks to the initial attendees and encourage other local friends. I took 3 naps to drive home. >The Supercomputing Conference was also fun.

The issue of tax dollars is a sensitive one. It is commonly dealt with by indirection, contractors, and subcontractors, Beltway bandits, and other third parties. The bomb designers pride their wine knowledge (which goes back to the Europe immigrants less US prudism). As Bamford notes, in contrast the code breakers drink Coke(tm). Originally, the vendor exhibit were separated from the Labs and school client side exhibits. Space became a premium. Again: long term thinking who gets the best students and visible presence for some political points. Everyone attempts to tread a fine line. Any party throwing is done by contracted party throwers. You think that's amusing? It came out in CDC history that LLL's computer center had a short stature physicist run their center. CDC endeavored always to have a sales head shorter than Sid. Always. I am taller than Sid, and I am short. The conference is now SC'xy and no longer Supercomputing'xy. -- Looking for an H-912 (container).

I'm using coaster from a booth at some long ago supercomputer '93; also held in Portland. Its from an institution that had only relatively recently come out of the closet. There were people that wouldn't walk down that isle ... being conflicted ... apparently leftover from when the institution was still in the closet. Kahaner was also in attendance ... back in the days ... when his reports were freely available ... from long ago and far away ... Dr. David K.
