Yeah, KansasFest is about as long as you can go right now without
being dangerous to your health. Admittedly, I don't stay up nearly as
late as I used to when I was younger.

I first attended KansasFest while still in college, way back in 1993.
I was 21 then. Back then, I'd stay up until 3 or 4 AM chatting and
writing code, sleep until 7:30, and do it all again. I can't do that
anymore. :)

Now I wind up in bed before 1 or 1:30 most nights, occasionally even
before midnight.

Man, I'm getting old. :)
