Salt Lake City

I was at a conference for the whole week. Besides the conference itself and the oppressive heat, there isn't much to report about other than my being very grateful and relieved to have been scheduled to talk on the first day. I think the local mormons were excited for all of the fresh blood available for conversion (that's my theory for why the SLC convention center is so plush). Here they are working their wiles on an unsuspecting American Crystallographic Association attendee


I was also in town for Pioneer Day which is apparently the biggest holiday in Utah.
