the wonders of wifi

I'm posting from the beautiful island of academic hush that is the National Institute of Advanced Studies (NIAS), where I'm currently typing up minutes on the seminar on food sovereignty that the GF is running. My head has been somewhat inflated by all the people coming up to me telling me that I type really fast - I've tried hard to resist going on about the wonders of the Dvorak keyboard and Ubuntu, with minimal success. (trust me, it only takes a second or two to make the slight jump of topic necessary).

Like conferences everywhere, it seems, the food is really good, and I'm meeting plenty of interesting people. I am constantly reminded, at these, how much I like talking to people who are studying things a few steps away from my own area, and how much I love talking about 'work' over (delicious) lunches.

Plus, someone just came and gave me some tea! Hurrah!
