PHP Quebec Underway
Made it to Montreal safely last night. Off the plane ~9pm but not to the hotel until ~11pm. The shuttle bus from the airport was quite packed and required a shuttle bus transfer downtown. I should have researched taking the subway, but figured that the aiport shuttle for $11 was worth not having to figure out if there's a path via public transportation. Maybe next time I'm in Montreal I'll look harder.
It's cool to be immersed in PHP, even if for just a few days. I've used PHP heavily in the past on a few projects but it's been a little while since I've been actively writing PHP although I do periodic maintenance.
The schedule looks jam-packed with interesting sessions. I'm interested in hearing about what's happening with PHP and also in seeing some of the database presentations (primarily non-MySQL). The only other MySQL presentation is a Tour of MySQL 5 by Damien Seguy, but it's in French.
Will write as long as the battery lasts.

Hello Mike,
I came across your blog while trying to track down someone who might be willing to let some Oracle DBAs fire questions at them about how MySQL works. It's very short notice (Tuesday, Arpil 4, anytime during the day; or Wednesday, April 5, afternoon), but it would probably be no more than an hour or so. I work for TRW and am the lead for a group of DBAs. We are expanding into using MySQL and understandably have questions about real world implementations. I tried to get one of the students in the MySQL class that I took to help me out, but he couldn't swing the time away from the job. So I'm just sending out feelers to see if I can track anyone down that has experience and is willing to share the good, bad and ugly. Any help you could provide, either yourself or pointing me to someone who might be able to, would be immensely appreciated. If it makes any difference, my husband and I just signed up for the motorcycle riding course like you mentioned in one of your recreation entries :) There are Harleys, or Harley wanna-be's in our future!
Have a great day,
Sandra Bell
