Re: Congrats to Dave Lavery
Thank you all for the comments. The award process has been quite unexpected and a bit interesting. It has also led to opportunities to meet some of the coolest people. At the formal announcement ceremony this morning, I got to sit next to a guy from NIST that has spent the last 25 years intentionally burning down buildings - and getting paid for it! And I thought that I had a fun job!
