{These Victorians sure now how to have a conference.

I am preparing this on my Palm Top PC, in the spa-bath of my apartment at
the conference venue. Should I choose to open the blinds, I could admire the
ocean view (across the living room and out through the doors of the private
balcony).

It is probably not part of the normal conference package, but being driven
here, down the Great Ocean Road, in the BMW, with the sun roof open, was
wonderful...

... now about the conference:

Its on "Best Practice in IT" and is at the Cumberland Resort, Lorne,
Victoria (Telephone: (052)892400, Fax: (052)892256).

The conference starts at 10:30 am and I am talking about "Road Rules for
Australia's Data Highways" at 4:45pm tomorrow.

The program also lists Bush-walking, Golf, Tennis, Fishing, Squash,
Bicycles, Beach Volley Ball, Bogie Boards, Surf Skis...

It finishes Sunday morning with "Best Practice? Forget I.T. Performance
Measurement", by John Smyrk.
