Re: IBM iSeries Tech Conf Spring 2006....

Your kids will get a better education by traveling with you than spending
thos extra days in the classroom. Just arrange to have the teacher send
along some of the stuff that they'd be missing. I used to travel with my
Dad frequently. I'd do schoolwork when he was in meetings, or riding in the
airplane.
