Auf Wiedersehen!

Img_0021 Another month of blogging has come and gone, and it’s now time to pay attention to wrapping up the summer, and getting myself physically from Michigan to Massachusetts. So here’s a heartfelt thanks to Dan Markel and the gang. But I was delighted to find an e-mail this morning from Susan Franck (Nebraska) with eight more Deponie #3 pictures from the L&S meeting in Berlin attached. (Note to Scott Moss: please direct art reviews directly to Susan.)Img_0023

Susan, however, was no better than I in identifying everybody. Img_0025There’s LarryImg_0026 Solum, looking Continental. And there’s David Zaring and Charles Yablon and Mike Guttentag and Randy Barnett and Brian Tamanaha. But I’m stumped on some of the others. So help me out by supplying comments that identify all of the people in the pictures.

Now at this point, I am doing the blogging equivalent of vamping with the text, so Img_0027 that I have enough length around which to post four more pictures. Susan described these as “iPhotos” taken from her cell phone, which I presume therefore to be a new iPhone. And it seems like that has a picture quality far in excess of my Motorola Q. But I don’t really care, because I never take a serious picture from my cell phone, and besides,Img_0028_2 this sentence is now long enough to plug in another picture.

By the way, Orly was correct in noting a year ago that one should not spend all one’s time simply going to the formal sessions. Some of the most fun (and Img_0029interesting learning) comes about, particularly in Berlin, talking to colleagues in the cafe, or the platz, or the biergarten. And whenImg_0030_2 one does take a chance on a completely unknown session just for the satisfaction of intellectual curiosity, remember that a 105 minute session is really, really long, and think about grabbing a seat by the door.

So, auf wiedersehen, and you can catch my colleagues Alan Childress and Mike Frisch with me over at Legal Profession Blog.

Susan advises that she spots Peggy McGuinness in several pictures, David Law (below the one of Larry Solum), and Ben DePoorter in the hip glasses.
