I'm currently sitting in a room of the Paris hotel on the strip in Las Vegas. You cannot imagine the cognative dissonance that this situation ring in my head. I am a much more down-home, guy-next-door kind of person and being here seems to require that you channel your inner Rat Pack character.
It's OK, though. I'm here attending the 53rd annual convention of my professional society.
First impressions: The Paris hotel is gaudy, overdone Chateau de Versailles with lots of people in shorts and halter tops wandering around with drinks.
It is kind of weird walking down the sidewalk, crossing the street and being surrounded by people with cocktails.
But, enough for now. Tomorrow is a big day. First session "Using Dita to Develop XML Documents!"
The fun never ends!
