PHI452

Greetings from Atlanta! The Pahle family and Thumper (the bot) made it safely to Atlanta Tuesday night. We look forward to seeing the rest of the team in the next two days! We took the same airline as last year (Airtran), but it was still weird when I tried to explain what was in the box at check-in, and the woman behind the counter replied "I know. I remember you from last year." Now maybe it is a bit out of the ordinary to see a 5 ft readhead struggling with a heavy, bright blue, 2 ft cube filled with metal and batteries, but I still looked over my shoulder more than once to see the hidden cameras. I think it is a good reminder of how visible the team is with lab coats and helpful smiles.
