I'm going to visiting the ENS in Lyon for most of June, for DMCS 2003 and then the Exystence Network's Thematic Institute on Discrete and Computational Aspects of Complex Systems. But first, of course, what Cris Moore is calling the ``gastronomic pre-conference''. I expect to learn a lot, gain a few kilos, finish some papers, and probably not blog at all. (Knitting the scraps of high-school French stuffed at the back of my brain into something usable is too much to hope for.)
