Thanks for the suggestion to join the SW Astrophysics group. I just signed up.
I wish I could have made it to the meeting at your place. I hope to have my
Mom's relocation situation settled so that I can make it to the meeting at
Jeff's.
Clear skies,
Wayne (aka Mr. Galaxy)

Hi Wayne,
I also miss the old IAPPP days. It took me a long time to adjust to the
larger IAPPP-West, which later became SAS, meetings. I like smaller
meetings and maybe you are the same way. When IAPPP was smaller and held
at Thundercloud Lodge one could give a talk without feeling it had to
meet some professional standard, and I liked knowing nearly everyone at
the meeting (because it was not a huge conference), the personal
contact, and the socializing. At the SAS meetings, sometimes the
Software Bisque brothers will have a room with some food and drink, but
something seems to be missing compared to the old IAPPP meetings. I feel
the meeting I held in September 2008 and the one Jeff is holding is like
the old IAPPP days in many respects. As Jeff said, this is a gathering
of the Southwest Astrophysicists. Since you have an interest in
spectroscopy and photometry, it behooves (-: you become a part of
the group and join SW-Astrophysics:
