Greetings from California
« on: September 28, 2015, 02:39:15 »
Hello All,

I was a sporadically active member at the other place and had the great pleasure of meeting Bjørn at the UK workshop he delivered a few years ago, as well as a few others of you.

I look set to be sporadically active here, too - I registered in June but this is my first post.

Last time I contributed I was in Minnesota despite hailing from Coventry in the UK, but I have moved again to take up a post with Tesla in California. It's proving an exciting time (aka "difficult") and I have only just got some kind of sensible bandwidth connection, furniture, etc.

Looking forward to some good quality discussions again!

Damian, Tesla is a hard piece of work. I read Ashlee Vance and I know Musk is into getting the maximum from any employee. This guy has a mission, making money is just a necessary condition to save the world and colonize Mars. You are really in a very interesting place now. Hope to see you anyway, here and in workshops like Scotland next year. I missed you very much. See ya &WELCOME
