The Alignment Workshop group picture was taken during the last coffee break of the last day--while there was still daylight. We assembled outside building 40; and after a few minutes the organizer with the camera came out and led us out of shadow to someplace with some sunshine. We went around the corner to congregate at--you guessed it--that Hindu idol.
My first impulse was to walk back to the conference room and skip the picture, but the second thought was to show the flag for Wisconsin, and so I stood with the group, as far from shiva as I could.
After a minute's reflection, it occurred to me that there weren't any good reasons for standing there, and a good reason to avoid it. But my mug is in the picture. I'm sorry.
