San Diego '03 was my last Siggraph... might've bumped into you then, agiel. Personally, I don't think LA can begin to compare to SD, but I'll refrain from my usual LA bashing. ;) There are many great places in LA, just too spread out with too many miles of drab, bumper-to-bumper concrete in between. (Okay, one little bash.) Ahhh, so it is Boston next year. I had a feeling it wouldn't really stay in LA. Thanks for that link, Oshyan.
