I wish I was on the west coast so I could come and somehow be 
involved with that project, even if just as an observer.  I've been 
following it on the web site and it looks fascinating.  I used to travel 
to the west coast a lot, but since I changed jobs a couple years ago 
I quit traveling.

I like the southeast, but there just ain't much computer history going on
around here.  I had to do my PDP-11 project mostly by myself while 
consulting with lots of manuals from Al's site and consulting with the
experts in California and elsewhere.
