I crashed the Utah Java User Group yesterday. It was a very interesting presentation about all of the ins and outs of XML. At least I feel good about my decision to stick with the RDMS / HTML combo.

The meeting was at the IHC facility which is in this massive Decker Lake office park. The thing that is interesting is that there is a humongous office park designed with no through streets into West Valley City. When you think of that from a societal point of view, it is quite freightening. Here you have the state's largest employers (IHC, Discovercard, USANA,...) essentially cutting their workers off from the rest of the society in this styrofoam packaged, insulated world.
