It's a hard life

The conference is over so at last I have some time --it was so much hard work-- to give my testimony of how hard it was. Being a scientist, you know. Going to conferences in exotic locations (like Bariloche, Argentina). My friend Ben can tell you how hard it was, seeing me drag myself to the dark conference room, like a cockroach scuttling underneath a rock, while he went off into the sunlit, radiant natural beauty of the surrounding lakeside forests. (what a bastard, no pity)

So, here is a snapshot of my so-called hard life (TM Ben 2010), specifically the view we had from where we poor traumatized scientists took our coffee breaks. Not too shabby, I suppose.
