Hey, Pierre is going to India! Someplace that's pronounced "Poo-nay".

And no, I'm not kidding. YOU GUYS SHOULD HOOK UP!

Pune, Maharastra, India http://www.cs.unc.edu/~raskar/pune/map.html

Bummer! Oh well, it's probably for the best... Pierre is sort of weird.

There can be only one Pierre. He'd probably start insisting that all the messages from 2001 are somehow queued up in cyberspace or something.

for work! i knew i was probably going somewhere over there to help get some VPN connections up, but i didn't know which of several cities i'd be going to or if i'd be going at all. but now, i guess, contracts are getting signed so i'm going to delhi some time.

i'll probably take a few days of vacation while i'm over there, too. definitely go and view the taj mahal. (i think it's legally required that any tourist within 1000k go there, isn't it?) not sure what else.

That is exceptionally cool. I want to eventually visit India, but I don't think I'm ready quite yet. Take a train to somewhere, and get some chai in the little clay cups that you can smash on the platform as the train takes off. :) And buy some beautiful saris. Mimi is a sari expert and can tell you how to wear them. Or they look beatiful in diffent home decoration purposes.

Take lots of pictures!

That should be an interesting trip.

Are they out-sourcing part of their operations to India?

we already did, but we're changing from one contractor to another over there.
