The 2011 Biennial Symposium in Kongsberg is fast approaching! [Redacted] and the other organizers have done a great job of putting together an exciting scientific and social program.

If yer gonna be sleep-deprived anyway, may I suggest you take a shift with my baby? He was up from 1 to 5 last night? morning?
Ashamed to say I have not seen the original "Insomnia." I thought the American remake was pretty damn good. However I am a sucker for an entertaining psychological thriller.
This Redacted fellow seems to know an awful lot about what's going on..
That's a code name for "Erect Dad".
Y'know, I've been to dozens of trade shows and conferences in Las Vegas over the years. And it strikes me as odd that good old Redacted never warned me that by the third day I was going to be not only desperately sleep deprived, but unable to unequivocally describe my condition as specifically "drunk" or "hung over".
Indeed, Redacted could have warned me of the diahrea, shakes and cold sweating brought on by the unfortunate environmental conditions of amphetamines, Seagrams Seven and fried foods...
Kongsberg, izzat where that giant ape lived? Don't let them sacrifice you, old chum.
Don't drink the banana daiquiri whut ever you do!!!
