The problem, in its mundane manifestation, was that you have to provide "proof of funds", i.e. show that you have enough money to survive your stay without resorting to drug running and prostitution. I had seen this requirement mentioned somewhere but had forgotten about it, and because I'd asked at Bank of Am. about the possibility of getting funds from my check card, and they'd told me they had sister banks in Canada at which I could make withdrawals in Canadian currency without even paying any extra fees etc., I wasn't carrying much cash at all ($63). They were highly skeptical about this --- the Canadian debit card system was completely different, there are no BOA in Canada, did I perhaps have it confused with Victoria, Texas?, etc., etc. (The BOA teller's info turned out to be totally correct.) Finally they said they really shouldn't be letting me in at all, but they would on the condition that I relinquish the "visitor document" they were giving me upon exiting Canada and no later than the 29th, and if I didn't relinquish the document there would be a warrant put out for my arrest (seriously!) The real problem was the metaphysical subtext of their interrogations; God knows I don't want to deal with them any more than is necessary.
I'll do it when there's an ACM SIGPLAN conference in Morrocco

I was just discussing this with EricP. I wonder if we ever pass each other on the street.
I really wish I could go to an NYC-EB meetup, but I fear for parking.
I once saw tiesto at a local pizza place (closer to me than him), but he was with a big group of friends so I didn't say hi. :(

Yeah, I didn't see Cajole that one time but I have met Cajole before and he's a cool dude. I was actually at Chinatown Fair on Saturday, do any of you NYCers go there?
Well, I mean where the hell does New York City park? New Jersey? Philadelphia? Long Island?
