The world according to me....

The annual Sea Turtle Symposium will officially begin on 22 February in Costa Rica. Despite the best of intentions, many of us are scrambling to finish our posters and polish our powerpoint presentations in the week just prior to the symposium. Last year I remember that I was still trying to get things ready up until I had to leave on a mad 3 hour drive to RDU airport on the way to Malaysia. This year, things are less stressful in anticipation of the symposium. Of course, it helps to have colleagues around who can give critical comments and provide suggestions, not to mention solve all computer/printer problems (thanks Wendy). Good luck to everyone in getting their presentations ready, and see you in San Jose in less than a week. Bon voyage.
