I have not booked the hotel or the flights yet, as I am uncertain about my availability.

Count me as 11/16ths of a person, with vegan leanings and a fondness for merlot and other soft red wines. (I'll take what I can get, and I am willing to bring stuff to share.)

My stepfather just had surgery today (successful, we believe) and my work situation is getting as weird as any reorg can get, but I hope to be able to see you all in California.
