Day 3... San Francisco and Sacramento

Hey! Enki has moved his blog to Armyofevilrobots.com. Check it out after you are done here. This page is going nowhere though...

(delayed, but still accurate. I am writing this on Saturday the 31st)

We left our hotel outside of San-Fran, and drove over the golden gate bridge.

It was foggy and surprisingly cold, even colder than back at home in Vancouver on a foggy day. SF gets pretty windy I guess, and is exposed out on the water. There are also quite a few "interesting" people in SF...

We ate in a deadly little italian restaurant, and then headed NE to sacramento, where we met up with some fans. Computer geeks all, and pretty proficient to boot.

CS12 in the states teaches Java. Cool huh? One of the listeners there was busting ass to finish a project in time, and another had finished a video game and earned a presidential commendation for it. I love meeting smart people (especially smart teenagers). I really need to offset my continuous disappointment with most kids I run into. It is good to see that the future is not hopeless.

As a footnote, one of these guys had just bought a new emachines Athlon notebook. Don't. We googled for his problem (overheating during normal operation), and came up with a huge number of hits, and the news that the problem was unrepairable.
