SQL Query
After finally submitting a paper to the Computational Social Choice workshop in Liverpool, and some advances with our computational pool player, I decided to head North to the Hiller Aviation Museum at San Carlos Airport. I arrived just on time for a guided tour of the museum and went on to use the flight simulators to try and land a Cessna 172.
Now, you probably ask why this post is titled SQL. Well, it turns out that SQL is the IATA code of San Carlos Airport (and no, it’s not because Oracle’s head office is nearby). Anyway, I managed to fly a simulated airplane from SQL to SFO and then under the golden gate bridge and finally land at PAO (Palo Alto Airport).
Speaking of museums, this Monday I have visited the Computer History Museum, which was closed, and finally donated our old DRAGON-32 computer for display there.
So they let you bring the dragon all the way to the U. S.?
Will it have your name on it as the donator?

I’m not sure if on display, but definitely in the museum catalog.

Well done, Aloner. Where did you learn to fly?
