Woohoo! Special mention of my choir's concert RT @shanghaiist Midweek Music Preview: Dec 9 - Dec 13: http://shanghaiist.com/2009...
Wanted to be at work early, needed to take a cab, gave up after more than an hour of trying. Working from home for now.
@ednacz I live in a transportation black hole - too many people, not enough good transportation options, so cabs hard to get. Also, rain.
This week/fortnight in questionable equation form: lim (timeandeffort --> ∞) workcompleted = 0
@irisjumbe It's a poorly formed limit formula that I just made up - the more i try to work, the less work gets done

Finally got a good interview after hours (5?) of rejections, out-of-town messages and changed contact details.

Learning about sec 406 of '74 US Trade Act- designed to prevent flood of imports from Communist countries from wiping out industries. Neat.
