I&#39;m talking to all kinds of facinating people.  I met the guy who produced Teen Wolf with Michael J Fox.  He was a facinating man with tremendous insights into entertainment.  He was teamed with an MIT professor who was surprisingly clueless.  He had a ton of bright people working for him, but really didn&#39;t seem to know how anything worked.<\/p>\n<p>I then went to meet with a bunch of Havard mathematicians.  They understood how things worked that I didn&#39;t even know existed.  My whole goal for the meeting was to ask just one question that didn&#39;t make me look like a total moron.  They said they were impressed with my professionalism and intellect.  However, they&#39;re hoping for funding so I expect they were just being nice.  I felt like a moron.<\/p>\n<p>Afterwards, my exhausted brain just wanted a quiet dinner and an early bedtime.  The hotel eatery looked a little lame, so I thought I&#39;d opt for an Applebees about 6 miles away.  A quick cab ride, a familiar meal, then back to the room.  However, after discovering that the roundtrip cab ride was $70, the hotel food stared to sound a lot better.  Talk about highway robbery!  <\/p>\n<p>Then finally I met some not so famous guys who had the coolest tech of all.  It&#39;s good to be a geek.  And it&#39;s good to be home before the snow hits.<\/p>\n<div class=\"blogger-post-footer\">\n<h6><span style=\"font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;\">Brought to you by Tim&#8230;<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.timscogitorium.com\/tinblog\/\">-Read the whole blog here-<\/a><\/span><\/h6>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#39;m on a brief junket through Boston and Newark for a couple of days.
