Two things of note

1) I apologize for being a harsh, judgmental snobbish bastard a couple posts ago. The focus of my ire punched a couple of my buttons, aspects which I am sensitive about. I came here to rant, but it probably would have been best to simply rant into a private filter so none of you had to see it.

2) Tomorrow morning I will be leaving on a trip to Banff which will last just over a week. I don't promise that I will be able to follow LJ or the internet on a whole, though I will try. It should be a good trip, a bit of a working vacation where I will meet up with the folks running the park. I am looking foreward to it.
