Next stop, Syracuse.
We're still here in Rochester, relaxing after this afternoon's talk at RIT. More about that in a sec, but first...

Next up:

Wednesday, September 20:
Syracuse, NY
Syracuse University
Lecture. 12:45-2:05 pm in the Shemin Auditorium in the Shaffer Art Building.

And yes, it is open to the public!

This afternoon's talk was well-attended by at least as many as came to the MIT talk (though in a room twice the size, so unlike MIT, there were actually empty seats). No camera with us, but if anyone else got pictures, post a link here. We had a full two hours, so I blabbed for much of the first one and then Sky did her 7 minutes about the tour, we fielded a bunch of questions (thanks to Winter and her mike -- at least until she got tired and went back into the audience to play sims on the DS). Then Sky played the first Winterview (which we'll send out shortly!) and we headed upstairs for a reception, at which there was much, much signing. And donuts. And Freihofer's Chocolate Chip Cookies Oh My God.

After that, we ate chinese with friends Chris and Carrie whom we haven't seen in ages and Carrie's friend Nancy. Much-missed old friends plus good food equals "yay!"

The room RIT reserved for us is a suite and it's... very, very large. We are most grateful.

Tomorrow, we're off to see more of RIT and then driving to Syracuse in the evening. Thanks to all our hosts, including the scintillating Matt and Marla, who've taken us under our wing for the duration.
