Oh brother, I forgot what it was like to attend a T10 Standards committee meeting. This is my first meeting in probably 10 years (or more). The last time I was here SAS didn’t exists and was only a twinkle in George Penokie’s eye. Seeing how the meeting is in Las Vegas there is some hope of at least enjoying myself – or not. Right now they are arguing over a bit in the Report General command. It happens to take up a reserved bit which for some reason seems to be sacred to the group – hey isn’t that why we reserved those in the first place. How exciting is this – huh. The animation of the engineers is so enthralling that I think I need a coffee break (decaf only these days). Well I think I’ll write my post for SNW seeing how this is so exciting and important.
