> this crazy "snowstorm" in Austin (it was less than an inch) Coming from MN and NY, that was nothing, but I had only packed t-shirts. The first I was aware of any snow was when walking out of the conference and seeing a BMW covered with an inch of it (from elsewhere? there was nothing on other cars). Like the other poster said, Dan was an influence in people's careers/lives and definitely on mine, even if I met him only a few times per year. I changed jobs and no longer have the original emails, but somehow he put me in touch with folks at CoreOS about a blog post, which led to a lot of networking that I probably would have never made otherwise, including a relay race in LA(!)... This week has already started badly. :-(
