   Hi Hugh
   Re: NOTE TO SELF: Why is it, that the more internet-enabled the world beco­mes, the more time we all seem to have to spend on air­pla­nes?
   Did you read George Mon­biot on air tra­vel in yesterday’s Guar­dian? Here’s a para…
   Accor­ding to the chief exe­cu­tive of the Inter­na­tio­nal Air Trans­port Asso­cia­tion, “Busi­ness habits are chan­ging and cor­po­rate tra­vel bud­gets have been slashed. Video con­fe­ren­cing is now a stron­ger com­pe­ti­tor.” Com­pa­nies have finally twig­ged that hois­ting 80kg of human 10,000 metres into the air whe­ne­ver you want to have a con­ver­sa­tion is a waste of time and money.

   Hope all goes well in SF. Love your stuff, keep roc­king.

   It’s a tes­ta­ment to the impor­tance of direct phy­si­cal inte­rac­tion with fellow humans.
   Except these days it’s easier to meet peo­ple con­ti­nents across than your next door neighbour.

   I love all your art…and your ideas. You have ope­ned up a world of pos­si­bi­li­ties for me.
   Alpine to SF?? Major cul­ture shock. I live in TX, been to Alpine more times than I can count…
   Well wishes and thanks for all the ins­pi­ra­tion!

   Air­pla­nes and air­ports and cabs and bad food vs. video con­fe­rence.
   Which better?
