nostatic at all...

Greetings from Houston. Here for a Hewlett Foundation grantees conference on Open Education Resources. Luckily I don't have to present or speak, but I do need to be "on," and spent much of tonight's informal dinner talking potential projects and ideas with various people. Tomorrow is a full day of talks and more talks, then another dinner. The humor moment was when I met up with another attendee who was in slacks and a sport coat (no tie) and I was of course in jeans and a hawaiian shirt. He commented that it said "casual" and I asked where he was from. DC was the answer. So there you go...regional definitions of "casual." I'll take the SoCal version every time...
