I'm a geochemist. My main interest is in-situ mass spectrometry, but I have a soft spot in my heart for thermodynamics, poetry, drillers, trees, bicycles, and cosmochemistry.

Geological Society of America meeting
Are any of y'all going to be in Portland this October? If so, what are you looking forward to seeing, hearing, and/or saying?
I'm one of the co-conveners for the Pardee Keynote "Digital Innovations in the Geosciences" on Sunday afternoon, so needless to say I've been a little focused on that session. There's also a poster session Tuesday morning associated with this. In all honesty I haven't really had time to peruse the rest of the sessions yet.
Callan Bentley has taken the initiative in organizing this year's Geoblogger meetup (http://nvcc.edu/home/cbentley/geoblog/2009/08/geobloggers-get-together-at-gsa.html) - looks like it'll be on Monday evening.
I'm giving a talk w/Anne Jefferson on our survey of women & geo-blogging. (Survey closes today!) That will be Tuesday at 5 pm. As will my undergrad's poster, argh. I'm also scheduled to go to a short course on Saturday afternoon.
I haven't looked at the schedule to think about what else I'm going to be doing. When I was looking at the call for abstracts, I saw a lot of sessions I'm interested in, though. I'm sure I'll be running around with 16 different things planned at any given time. Ack.
I haven't looked into the detailed schedule - am presently signed up for the Scablands Flood field trip pre-meeting, may switch and take a uranium short course post-meeting instead.
I am also presenting Sunday morning on using Geological Movies as a teaching tool but I haven't had time to peruse the other talks. Too busy with school at the moment.

If I haven't emailed you by Friday about your session, bug me.
ReplyDeleteAccording to the on-line schedule for your session, two of the scheduled presentations are one minute long. Is that correct?
