It used to be at http://plan9.wtf.nyc.ny.us/ but the plan9
pages are gone.

here's my opening joke from the editor panel, which i made up in real time
as i approached the podium, upon realizing i didn't have an opening joke.

three programmers go into a bar.

the sam user is there because he's finished the day's work and wants to relax.
the vi user is there because he's going to be working all night and needs a break.
the emacs user is there because there's nothing else he can do: both his hands
are in splints because of carpal tunnel syndrome.
