Home from Washington DC

It feels good to be home.

Saw a lot of things in our “free” time in DC; the one that is sticking most in my mind is the Jefferson Memorial. Presidential memorials never seemed to me as though they would be all that significant; some big statues in big marble-columned porticoes, how impressive could they be? When you stand there in person, the answer is very impressive. The inscription around the inside of the dome sticks in my mind:

I have sworn upon the altar of God eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man.

It was a productive series of meetings, but like I said, it’s good to be home. Over the weekend, I’ll be trying again to restore my data from the old server… here’s to that.
