FW: Blogger post failed

I have just spent an hour scanning the LinkedIn pages for the University of
British Columbia, looking for familiar names. I found two or three near the
beginning, and promptly sent them invites. The rest of the time was
fruitless; still, going through those names brought back a flood of memories
- of rooms in engineering buildings, dormitory conversations, quiet
discussions in small libraries. It was a whole different world then, more
complex than the present in many ways. I breathe deeply and low as I
remember those quadrangles, those roads, those long walks across the wintry
campus.
