Well, tomorrow I leave for the DOE Computer Graphics Forum 06 in Monterey, CA.  That means 3 days of listening to all the DOE people talk about all the money they have to spend, and then lament about how it only buys 500Teraflops instead of 750.

Seriously tho, it’s a great chance to meet people who have already implemented the type of stuff we’re asked to do.  They have alot more resources to devote to problems, so we DOD types like to let them iron out the kinks before we get involved :)   They can afford to scrub a $1million viz cluster as “insufficient” while we’re forced to make do. 

While I’m there, I’m supposed to give a talk on ezViz in the DOD.  So wish me luck.  I’m taking my Toshiba e740 again, and hopefully they’ll have wireless access.  If they don’t, then don’t expect any updates again until Thursday.
