Ben's Solar Powered Interactive 3D Kiosk what a real hit. Thanks to
Andrew for showing up with a necessary cable. Alan and Anna, co-workers
Leigh used to work with at biotech Celtrix, surprised everyone with their
tale of 8 months traveling through Africa and bicycling through Greece,
Turkey, even parts of Bosnia, and up through central Europe. They also
brought a thoughtful gift of Klingon Blood Wine (humor, actually it was
a distinctively packaged Italian liquor and chocs). Leo and companion
from Virtual Research, Dennis from Virtual Alchemy, Nola & Kim and even
boss man Steve himself showed up and jingled the ivories after he and his
new spouse Wendy returned from seeing favorably rated Stigmata. Also superb
grilled eats (from chef's Aunt Sheila, Uncle Bunky and Leigh) disappeared quickly.
Henry hosed down the compost pile and discussed the legend of Beowulf while
Sarah and her sister showcased the next wave of truly fashionable eye wear
for geeks (I am wearing them now). Rachel and Josh kept the kitchen bar
lively. Joe discussed routers with Nola's fiend Kim. Lionhearth Kirk and
Stasia (provider of excellent VRML content for twirl: my open
source browser) brought extra num nums for the grill. Stasia's boy friend
Ian (who has a new startup software company) brought co-worker Devon and
Stephanie (just started at Atari) who were very keen to checkout Ben's
kiosk. Thanks to our neighbors, Gayle and Cliff for loaning the very
popular outdoor table and chairs.
