[Blindmath] CSUN

[Rasmussen, Lloyd]

I'm getting there Tuesday night, March 15 and leaving very early Saturday, March 19.  They are not doing papers on Saturday this year; exhibits only.

CSUN will be held in San Diego, March 16th through 18th (pre conference work shops on the 14th and 15th).
I will only be there from late on the 15th until Sat the 19th (I actually think there are some lectures beind held on the 19th as well, but very few people tend to attend Saturday morning lectures).
