Cleveland 2026 Cs in the rearview mirror, 400 miles to Virginia yesterday, the few photos I took (or 📸 friends sent me), like a flipbook with two-thirds of its pages missing: 24th story strictly fog in the forecast; 8 a.m. Friday on bandwidths; skyline; presenterism; more cowbell; Lake Erie(lhonan), which I learned translates to ‘long tail’; 8 a.m. Saturday on worknets; two of VT’s best!; and once back at the holler, Feta admiring my tree climbing skills. Saw some fantastic presentations and always-always rewarding to see so many longtime friends. #travelog #4c26 #cleveland
Added: I should have mentioned that Cs feels livelier when it coincides with a major fencing tournament, hundreds of young competitors scurrying through the convention center hallways with foils drawn and us academics trundling with the slow confidence that says, ‘Younguns, impale me if you must but I won’t feel it because I am MADE of scar tissue.’ 😆
Thick fog viewed from the Hilton Downtown Cleveland. 
Friday 8 a.m. presentation on temporal bandwidth and disciplinarity. 
Cleveland downtown skyline on midday Friday. 
Friday 8 a.m. presentation, “presentism” slide, invigorated that the loose wires on the projection system held their connections. 
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Saturday Night Live exhibit–the costume and accessories from the Blue Oyster Cult more cowbell skit. 
A few of Lake Erie. 
Saturday 8 a.m. prespondent slide, What’s in a Worknet? 
Photo with two of VT’s outstanding RW PhD students, Gideon and Temi. 
Back at the holler on Saturday evening and Feta is enamored of my tree-climbing skillset after so many days of travel.
