People who looked elsewhere:

• Ted How come you guys have different coordinates for 5/24 (Sat) and 5/25 (Sun)? I thought the weekend was all supposed to use Friday's opening DJIA. Btw, I used the tool linked by xkcd (it's broken at this moment, but worked all day Friday & Saturday) and got different coordinates: 37.400246° -121.722772°. Turns out that location was behind private property, but I met some very nice ranchers :)

Events

After running into each other, we sat down and had a very nice picnic on the lake edge with beer, wine, cheese and other foodstuffs.
