Right now I’m sitting down in the bowels of Pepsi Center in a gymnasium that has been converted into a press filing center. Apologies for the silence today — internet access has not been nearly as easy to come across as I thought it would be. Earlier I was taking in the spectacle from my mile-high seat here in the mile-high city, but alas there is no free wifi in the main hall in the Periodical Press Gallery where I’m seated (though there’s apparently a press filing station somewhere that I plan to jump on tomorrow). The internet gods seem to be smiling on me now, so I’m going to make digital hay while the sun shines. Or something. Stay tuned.
