Four days in Central Asia went very well. We hope to launch www.StudentStan.com this fall based on the plans we made. Rich, my traveling colleague and friend, did a great job leading the group in planning. For most of this trip I was busy configuring and reconfiguring some spiffy USB flash drives. These drives run a secure communication system for our website volunteers to use when they respond to visitors on this site. I also trained everyone how to use this new communication system.

Our new friends gave us these gifts on the last day.

This weekend I’m enjoying Budapest. Had dinner at the Adler last night and a day of good meetings yesterday.
