At the RSA security conference this week.  While it's less dramatic and shiny than something like DEFCON or a Black Hat briefing, I can actually convince the company to send me to this conference (mass transit to conference, no hotel?  Ok.)  Sometimes I really do feel like I work for some sub-department of the Laundry, without all the cool magical underpinnings.

I'll have a con report afterwards, but for now, let me just say that I'm always both thrilled and terrified by the attendee population.  I got to listen to Bruce Schneier's annual state of thinking speech, which was nifty. 

Now excuse me, I have to go write my daily allotment of prose before all of my remaining grey matter curls up in a quivering mess.  Oh, and super limited email and LJ activity as I'll be there for about 10 hours a day and then transiting for another 2.  Bleagh.
