Folks,
Just thought I would make a plug for getting your own IDL
T-Shirt. I've been wearing mine while I wander around the
Hawaiian Islands and I'm beginning to feel like a rock star!
Complete strangers are coming up to me, shaking my hand,
telling me how much they "loved the book" and "it got me
through graduate school". I sit down on the plane to read
my new mystery novel (P.J. Tracy, author, check it out!)
and I have to spend 30 minutes discussing IDL with someone
who has used it almost as long as I have.
But the clincher happened this weekend as I sat in a small
town restaurant having my lunch. A woman, a LARGE woman,
came up to me and told me I was the "best looking man she
had seen in a LONG time!" I'm telling you, I'm *sleeping*
in this shirt now! :-)
Cheers,
David
