I heard some extraordinary presentations today at a conference. It's rare I get excited about speakers, but, having had a lot to do with arranging some of them, I was very happy. I'll write more about them later, but my guess is that our client's members will say very positive things about this meeting.
OK. Now what.
Well, it's looking like I may have to go to Beijing, after all...in less than a month. Dammit! And it will be for only two days, if I go. So, a massively long and annoying flight, followed by a brief visit, followed by a long and massively annoying flight. Oh, well. I like the client. I will do it if I have to.
I saw the Statue of Liberty tonight, while on a dinner cruise in the New York Harbor. I am not one to be a flag-waving patriot, but the sight of that landmark, so close, lit so beautifully, brought tears to my eyes. What a wonderful gift from France! And what a shame the current administration is slashing and burning everything Lady Liberty stands for. This country once stood as a beacon for people the world over. Bush has brought us down to serving as a target to stop oppression.
