Well, it's not something i need to scratch immediately, as i'm currently
reading half a dozen books in parallel (damn you, interdiscplinary problem!),
but i wont be able to attend the next technical meeting as driving
10'000km is a bit much to just attend one talk, even if it's very
interesting ;-)
