If you read this, if your eyes are passing over this right now, even if we don't speak often, please post a comment with a memory of you and me. It can be anything you want -- good or bad. When you're finished, post this little paragraph on your blog and be surprised (or mortified) about what people remember about you.

I have notes for posts on the Rocky community (I love every one of you, the community is thumping, the present now will later be past), and the China-and-India problem (they aren't the anti-answer, recognize our ability to divert disaster, the possibility of a golden age)... but I'll get those out when I can.

I remember you getting a team of Olin students to replace our lowest SigSys quiz score with a philosophical experiment, Prisonner's Dilemma style, and nobody sold out.

I remember the week everybody in your CoCurricular avoided clocks; I give you credit for the following summer when I ran with the idea, waking to sunrise, sleeping at sunset, and arriving conveniently whenever.

I remember you finally arriving at Falling Leaves after battling with public transportation all afternoon, haggard but good company. And cooking a weird pie out of parmesan and mushrooms, and you leading an uproar when I attempted to throw out the leftover cheese rind. And some of the times you came to dance on Wednesdays. The SCA in pittsburgh isn't the same, and there aren't enough world-changing philosophers in the robotics department at CMU. You are missed.

*swoon* This made my day! I have so many good memories from Olin-- I hope that CMU is treating you well. Going to Pennsic?
