Although Art clearly took a bullet for me [1] (page forward to the "Taking The Bullet" award), Access definitely took its toll. I've not had much stamina - particularly for the combination of travel and public speaking and coding and socializing and PENNANT-WINNING unique to Access conferences - since my illness, which some of you know well. (Ross: point of information, it's "delicate bloom".) So it takes me a while to recover from a busy trip, and I'm not recovered yet from this one.
Art's heroic illness-absconding notwithstanding, this has been about the least productive work week I've had all year, and I blame it on Access Exhaustion. I've been down for the count with only feeble progress on anything, paid or no. For those this might be frustrating, I'm sorry, and I expect to be back at full speed next week.
