[CSG Fall 2005] Dinner cruise and conversation

Last night featured a lovely cruise on Pittsburgh's three rivers - the weather was lovely, the beer (Iron City) was free, and the company was great.

Jack McCredie from UC Berkeley regaled us with tales of growing up in Pittsburgh when it was still the steel city with all the mills going on along the river - now it's all been converted to restaurants, parks, and ball stadiums.

The evening ended with a long chat between Terry Gray, Lisa Dusseault and me. While I won't try to recap the conversation, it revolved around IMAP, HTTP, connection vs. connectionless protocols, authentication for WebDAV, etc.

Here's a photo of Terry and Jack Duwe on the boat.
