I miss vacation

It’s amazing how different a week on the beach is from, say, five minutes in front of my office PC at work. Beach: warm, sunny. Office: Cold, slightly blue tint from monitors and flourescent lights. Beach: Sounds like the ocean. Office: Sounds like electronics equipment buzzing and whirring and with that little noise in the back of your head that you’re not really sure is actually THERE, but you know you can’t go looking for it, just in case it isn’t.

You get the idea.

Thanks to all the folks with cameras, and FOO! to those of you that didn’t take any pictures! Dr. Helfrich’s video will be up soon.
