Wow, that's good stuff, too bad there's no one doing stuff like that in the
Los Angeles area.

That makes two of us. Hanging out with Tom, Bruce, and others at OSCON
2002 was one of the most informative and fun times I've had. That and
I could really stand to brush up on my Postgres basics

Ah, but he said 2002 and I think Tom was there that year.

And I wasn't, which makes it rather difficult to hang out with me.

I will however be in Malvern too, since it's just around the corner for me.

I'm up in New York City and would be taking the train down to Philly.  Is
anyone coming from Philly or New York that would be able to give me a lift
to/from the train station?  Sounds like a great event.

I'm driving from Tenafly NJ and going to both sessions. If you're able
to get to the George Washington Bridge (A train to 178th Street [Port

not sure right now about the return because I have confused plans to
meet someone.

    If anyone is going to take the train all the way, please e-mail me
offline.  There is a train station relatively close to the event (NY to
Philly then the R5 to Malvern), but it's not within walking distance, so
we'll figure out some way to pick people up from there.

Thanks,

Is there anyone else from the Toronto area going down that would like to
share the driving?  I am planning to drive down Friday morning and drive
back Sunday.  I'm not looking for expense sharing.  I just don't want to
drive for eight hours straight.

Many thanks to Chariot Solutions, http://chariotsolutions.com, for hosting
Bruce Momjian giving one of his PostgreSQL seminars outside of
Philadelphia, PA yesterday. There were about sixty folks there, one person
driving from Toronto and another coming from California (!).

I found it very enlightening and learned some new things about PostgreSQL,
even if I *did* doze off for a few minutes after lunch when all my energy
was concentrated in my stomach.

But after I got back home I dreamt about PostgreSQL all night long!!!

Thanks Bruce and Chariot Solutions.

Seconded.  It was definitely worth the drive from Toronto.
