What an excellent conference room! A small, and wonderful Vcologies meet-up - workshopping papers and socializing in Oxford, Mississippi - and quite apart from the intellectual heft (which has been considerable), the setting, in a former railroad depot, is such an upgrade on the usual seminar room. And we got our own ecofriendly conference waterbottles, and a stunningly good Southern dinner in a James Beard Award winning chef's restaurant. Today has been the very best of academic life ... though I just wish that our organizer hadn't been prevented by Circumstances from being at all of it, since she did a mind-bogglingly good job of bringing us all together.
