I'm in Korea and let me tell you it is a really cold place. Getting here was nice in the sense that I was flying Business class for the second time in my life and I always forget how awesome the service is each time... Linen tableclothes and a 5 course full ... lunch. (and really really good cheesecake.). But I have a cold and that makes flying miserable... always... as well as leaving my passport on the plane when I got off... which was a little adventure.

But more about Korea... the people seem really nice, although I can't speak a word of korean. Ah well... that's the way it goes. The Technology here is incredible... but you expect that...

Let me give you a few examples of what I've noticed in the oh... 20 minutes I've been here. This will be quick.. my flight boards in 10 mins. The escalators are sensor controlled. The computers come with Natural Keybaords... and are TINY... and have HUGE LCD screens... and the elevators have cool displays and all... fun stuff... OK... boarding call... Talk to you all at Stanford.
