Hi Jeff,

I have been to Atlanta several times, but did not attend PyCon. I have

not enjoyed a deep tech background - only a couple classes - so I

struggle to understand the jargon at such gatherings. People get mad

when you ask what words mean.

Of course, if I start taking tech classes on the cheap/free with the

senior citizen policy, I might get up to speed.

The classes that interest me are in Tampa. Don't know if there is a

residency requirement or not. Looking into it, though.

Bike can make it in a little over an hour, runs about 60. Might be

faster with a smaller rider, but I am what I am (fat). Main benefit is

65+ miles per gallon.
