Hello Lafayette from Copenhagen! As many of you know, Christine and I are in Copenhagen, Denmark. We had great aspirations of attending the Copenhagen Climate Conference which I'm sure you've heard all about on the news. We're trying to keep a blog going, however we (along with about 20000 other people) have been kept out of the conference due to the facilities being under-capacity. With sporadic internet access, we're trying to keep the blog updated. Check it out! Also, you can follow our twitter tweets here.

In other news, the city is absolutely gorgeous. We're staying out of trouble and following the conference as best we can from the outside. Don't take the ridiculous headlines that protests are getting brutal too seriously. They are, but in my opinion the protesters are asking for trouble. The NGOs should let the politicians and scientists do their job and try to follow what's going on without making the process more difficult for everyone. Honestly, getting in the way isn't going to give us a better treaty.
