Check out the pic­ture gal­lery. Even though it was all cat­egory the­ory, and con­sequently I can fol­low almost none of the other talks, it’s still a won­der­ful con­fer­ence to go to. It’s a nice atmo­sphere, a good mix­ture of grad stu­dents, pro­fess­ors and pro­fess­ors emeriti.

After the con­fer­ence I stayed in Cal­gary for another couple weeks work­ing on my thesis and going through bounds infer­ence in detail with Brian. Unfor­tu­nately, and excit­ingly, we found a big prob­lem with the mix­ture of coin­duct­ive and induct­ive recur­sion which can take one out of poly­no­mial time. I may write on that more at some other time, but only after I think of a good way to describe it, at which point the first place it will appear is my thesis.
