Amazon is reusing a lot of old Cold War infrastructure to build its cloud. But I digress. It hardly matters any more where your server is located. People still matter more, and I'm still in the Bay Area. You don't need a thumb drive as a pretext to get together, Robert. Just let me know more about your plans.
