My Excellent South American Adventure

Despite my daily posts last week, I was really among the missing. I spent from the 20th to the 27th (counting travel time) in Medellin, Colombia, being a guest speaker at this conference.

But now I'm home, and have read all the posts and comments from the past week, and just want to say a big thanks to Alex and Chuck and all the witty, talented WU-vies who make this site so wonderful.

Here are two fotos from my trip.

If this is what is going on down on the subatomic level of creation, I'm glad I can't see it.

Apparently the South Koreans believe these popstar girls can sell everything from cellphones to pizza.

Sensual or religious? You decide, perhaps after reading the rest of the story here.

Only Bollywood could turn Machu Picchu into a Hindu stageset.
