I'm off to the states to join Lilian in mid March. Two weeks in Berkely with a 4 day weekend in Vegas in the middle. There's an SF convention on and I've wanted to visit Vegas for _years_. It's the epitome of...whatever it is that Las Vegas is. Nowhere else can you see Ship battles on an hourly basis or a pyramid larger than the Great Pyramid. It's one part of mankind pushed as far as it can go. I'm not sure if this is a good thing, but I have to go and see it.

Berkely, hopefully, will also be good. I've been to SF before, about 10 years ago, and I'd enjoyed it a fair bit. Going back would be good. I know there's a couple of you out there, and if you'd like to meet up at some point, that'd be good.

We're in Palo Alto, a bit south of SF, and as far as I know will be around in March.

I envy your Vegas trip.

I'm just 625 miles north of Berkeley.

Given that Shannon and I live 0 miles from Berkeley, would you like to come over some evening for games?

Great! I'll email you our phone number and address. Our house is sort of difficult to get to (surrounded by traffic barriers and one-way streets), so it might be best if you phoned for directions once you are in town. Or if you know where you'll be staying, I could send you directions from there.

When you're in Vegas make sure you go on the Big Shot on top of the Stratosphere casino - it's on the Strip.

There's nothing quite like being weightless a thousand feet above the desert in an uncontrollable fit of giggles, trust me.

And you can buy a photo of your spine being dangerously compressed! It's an all round hoot!

I'm just 4500 miles from Berkely - be sure to drop by on your holiday.

Check out the permanent Star Trek exhibition at the Las Vegas Hilton. It's kinda cool if you're a geek like us.

Can you get me some stuff whilst you're there?
I'll send you the money before you go if you can.
