      Just bring shorts and a t-shirt and you'll be fine. I think its about 75 outside right now, maybe 80?

        If you get time to make a side trip, the Air Force Museum in Dayton Ohio is really cool.

        Heck yeah! Wright-Pat makes the National Air and Space Museum look like the rejected leftovers. Of course, Chi town to Dayton is a pretty good haul. Definitely not a day trip. But, Shedd Aquarium in Chicago is really cool if your into marine life. -Draugnar

          You can try it but the best Chicago Style pizza is from Zacharys pizza in Oakland California. Just a subway trip away from San Francisco. I mention this because I know that a lot of dev conventions are in San Francisco.

                  For a good read on the way, pick up a copy of The Devil in the White City.[^]

                      My desktop xkeyboard, at the office is a UK one, the laptops I use have belgium keyboards. A lot of the letters are in different places, and, since I dont touch type, I cant set it to UK layout, else I forget where the stupid little symbols are, the slashes, the percents, etc.

                            You have obviously been getting your weather from an Inuit, they have a dozen words for snow, but ask what temperature it is and they describe in in terms of clothing and estimates based on their environmental conditioning and not yours. :);P
