Our trip to Germany went very well, and we're now back in Urbana, working hard on grad student stuff. Cindy is still taking classes, working in the linguistics lab, and designing experiments of her own. I've been mostly auditing classes (3 registered, 1 not) and teaching Calc 3, which is a lot of fun, for all that I start teaching at 8am on TuTh. I've also been reading up on some physics - hopefully that'll help me steer properly towards the applied side of math.

As far as video of Germany... I now have a camera that shoots in full HD (thanks, mom & dad!) and I have about 6 hours' worth of Germany recorded. I cut this down to about an hour, and put the compressed version online. Unfortunately, the internet is not ready for 12gig/hour movies to be easily uploaded to a server, so I had to limit myself to ~1 gig of data, which really cuts down on the quality. Let me know if you want to see it in HD, and I'll mail you an SD card with the movie.

We also have lots of photos, and I'll put those up with a description within a couple of days.
