   If you ARE in San Diego, there ought to be time for a margarita at the Hotel del Coronado. If only to have your picture taken in front of it.

   The only Grant I want to see right now is Mr. N.I.H. Grant…

   @Austin: I went there on my last trip to San Diego. It was raining, but we drank some very nice IPA on the beach patio (the bartender was most confused, but was mollified slightly when we explained that we were from Vancouver) and watched dolphins frolic in the surf while pelicans dive-bombed from above. Then we took the ancient lift up to the top floor, and one of my bosses (I have several) asked me very loudly, in front of the ancient elevator attendant, whether this reminded me of my time in prison.

   This is what happens when a group of academics have several hours to kill before their flight home.

   Nice big ships in San Diego as I recall, at least the ones that aren’t deployed to the Persian Gulf and similar places at the moment.

   There’s always Sea World, too.

   Or the Fashion Valley Mall, the parking deck of which (I was semi-reliably told) is an excellent place to “arrange” to have your car stolen and driven to Mexico, should you need the insurance money.
