Salamandaplooza: DC - The Ocho

Thank you all who showed up. I know some of you took time off from family time and worked around significant logistics challenges in order to make it.

If you ever wonder what the best comment thread would be like around beers (and Diet Cokes) for a few hours - it was that good.

I am humbled by the intellectual heft around the table, the depth of experience, and the varied background - thanks to one and all, again.

Oh, one detail I want to repeat. I did not - I repeat DID NOT ask for a slice of lime in my Blue Moon. Thanks to Super-Dad for getting me a Guinness to wash the taste of it out of my mouth.
