AFK today...

At 7:15am this morning I got a call at home... I'm due to brief senior management at 1:30pm today on our proposed R&D plans with the FAA for giant, geographically distributed back-end data servers that would run the US air traffic control system, starting in 2008 or so.

And I hadn't started the pitch yet...

It's about half done now... time to get rolling again. 57 miles, a half tank of gas,and I need sunglasses...
