I had the opportunity to make a presentation about our project to some folks from La Poste on Thursday night last week. Later that evening I showed them around the facility while we were sorting mail. Got home about 1 AM. It would be nice if more mail were sorted during the day, but I guess that would delay your mail delivery by a day. Completely unacceptable.
The bit of exciting news I got this week was that the lease is up on my 500 pound (so, I exaggerate, but it feels that heavy when I am lugging it through airports all the time) work laptop. Since I was back in the US this week we were able to transfer all the files and I now am using a brand new, shiny, Dell Latitude D800. It is a little bit thinner, and definitely a pound or two lighter, but still quite the behemoth compared to Joyce's 15" Apple Powerbook. My son made a comparison of the two computers here -- look halfway down the post.

Thanks. I knew that would happen if I linked to the Apple store, but I forgot :-( I've tried a non-store link that might have more longevity.
