There will be two events to celebrate - one at the Tech Museum of Innovation San José and one by SRI at Stanford. I hope many IPer's can join us!

Also, we recommend that you never use your computer monitor at more than 60% brightness to save electricity (unless you are working in a very bright environment, in which case you should turn down the office lights or draw the blinds on your windows). Please also turn down your heating and put on a sweater or turn down the air conditioning and take off your jacket, as the case may be. Traveling to and from work by public transportation (or walking or cycling depending on distance and circumstance) has been shown to significantly reduce the modern office worker's carbon footprint, as does becoming a vegetarian. Wasting company time by reading this email signature may force the company to hire more people and therefore double the carbon footprint your job should have taken (plus it will make the company generally more uncompetitive and hence more wasteful) so do not read this message.
