I had written -

Proud to note that I will be giving a presentation of PyGeo to a portion of the math faculty/students at PolyTechnic University in NY tomorrow evening.

Great fun to have gotten the right audience - and some good feedback. They were great good sports in seeing the best in the efforts of an amateur - making up in passion for a "mission" what he may be lacking in technical depth. Except that the only non-departmental guest in the audience was a tech heavyweight with an interest in education and technology issues . Ironically, after my presentation I overheard him talking to the math department head,quoting Alan Kay - with whom he apparently enjoys some personal relationship. I mentioned I had heard he left Disney - and left it at that. (Since it was only the Disney connection that ever distrubed me.) Despite my track record with the Python establishment, I must say I thought I made an effective spokesman for the case of Python and related goodies - including PyGeo of course - as tools that quite well belong in a math department's arsenal.
