You missed plenty. I, on the other hand, missed very little! I have been in Pullman, Washington for the past three days, and got back to home sweet home only 30 minutes ago.

Goodbye to comfort
[Ian] describes his study space with a half-smile.
"It's a good thing I'm not claustrophobic," said the RAL senior. "My cubicle is only a square yard. It's connected to the main computer room, and has no windows."
"It's a closet."
In his snug domain, [Ian] has studied hard enough to pass two semesters of Web Design in one fell swoop and programmed his own MP3 player.
"It's usually silent," he said, "but my computer has 4.1 surround sound, so I can listen to music if I want to. I usually do math at the dining table, everything else is in the cubicle."
For a break, there are episodes of "Stargate" or "I fiddle around with my electric piano."
