Going Top End


Jimbo flies to Top End today in Down Under to attend the ASID 2010 where he will be presenting 2 posters bearing part of the results of his research.

Now, if you Google ‘Darwin’, there isn’t really a lot to look forward to, other than the possibility of being struck by lightning as Darwin is arguably the most lightning prone land area in the world! Imagine, in 2 hours, it can have as many as 1,634 lightning strikes!

Which begs the question:

Why have a conference in a place which is as exciting as watching grass grow or bread rise?

I have no idea myself. Probably it is an epic conspiracy to keep everyone WITHIN the conference as people have no where better to go to!

Sigh…

Why can’t they have it in Sydney or Melbourne or even Tasmania?!!!! Gaargh!!!

Psst…I heard there is a nudist beach somewhere near Darwin…heh heh….
