Oxford wrap-up

I’m basically headed back to the train in a minute, though I’ll stop for lunch first.

This morning was an interesting wrap-up session with all of the invitees who were still in town. Overall this was a rather exhilarating week, and certainly the most innovative format of any conference I’ve ever attended. Lots of discussion, and everyone gave about three presentations apiece during the week. (And then I had the side lecture at the Business School on Wednesday as well.)

Two very nice grad students took me on tours of Hertford and Jesus Colleges, so now I’ve seen 3 of the 30-some here. I’ll probably be here again in August briefly too, since my schedule en route to York allows it.

London tonight, Cairo tomorrow, back at work on Sunday, and must also fetch Babycat from the babysitter before she is permanently kidnapped.
