My wife and I were at the D.C. Winter 87 Usenix. Now she believes that the
Usenix people, in general, like bad weather (maybe to make sure they stay
inside :-) ).  Although at this summer's conference, the weather was unusually
good.

By the way, why not come to Seattle? The last time the Usenix conference
was anywhere near here, was in in Portland in 1985. Besides, I've heard that
coming to Seattle is ``the'' YUPPI thing to do.

P.S. There are a number of micro-breweries here with very good beer ...
