For reasons that are no longer clear except as a fit of strange exuberange, I announced yesterday that tomorrow at noon I'd give a short course on supercomputing. Reserve a room! Invite everyone! Be merry! I was very exuberant. Rooms were reserved. People invited. Merriment merried. And yet I have so much to do, suddenly, before leaving early early on Saturday morning for Five Distinct Missions. So many things to do, and yet, in hours I'll be in the pinball machine of transcontinental travel.
