I just received an email that Microsoft's ArcReady and MSDN Unleashed
sessions are canceled due to Ike. I was looking forward to learning
the information covered on both of these sessions. It was bad enough
that the storm had to hit on the day that the Houston TechFest was scheduled, but to also miss this opportunity really makes it a whammy for the .NET folks in Houston.
I know that there are much bigger fish to fry in this city, I myself have only had power in my home since Saturday the 20th and according to CenterPoint there are still over a million people in the city without power. For those of us that would have had the opportunity to get back to work and start learning and collaborating with others at these events, it would have been a refreshing respite from the recent unpleasantness.
Hopefully they will be able to get them rescheduled in the near future.
