[Chicago] Introduce Yourself

[Michael Tobis]

>From the far southern suburbs (Austin TX). A charter ChiPy member and
still lurking.

Still using Python to manage large ensembles of scientific code in
climate research. Also I run a modestly popular and extremely
interesting sustainability blog at http://planet3.org and am working
to help it escape from WordPress to Django.

I'm a Python enthusiast of long standing but by chipy standards only a
semi-pro, so I am constantly learning things from this list, including
today.

I keep planning to just show up again but have not been able to make
my Chicago trips coincide with a meeting.

I also admit that I hang around python folks as a partial antidote to
the gloom and doom I preach all the time. I love the creativity and
enthusiasm and competence, so don't ask me about that environment
stuff at a python meeting because I am looking to you to cheer me up
not the other way around.
