Berlin scratchpad

In Berlin… taxes: included.  condiments: not included. 
telephone calls, wireless access: not included.  calling card
calls from many phones: not possible. 

Berlin gender inequality:  men’s haircuts: 30% the cost of women’s
cuts.   women have their own sessions at hacker conferences,
with topics such as ‘how to get more out of being a [female hacker]
than just sex’.

Berlin ice skating: set up and taken down each day in a public square; free access.

East Berlin at night : surprisingly safe, at least on the four nights I
wandered the streets.  All neon and concrete… and a lovely river
running through it. Photographs to come.
