A dozen examples from the Freer show how tea utensils embody changes in weather. Rough stoneware conveys warmth, for example, while porcelain is cool to the touch.

Ok,
So I'll be there a 11:45 tomorrow.
If you want to find me at the expo, look for a guy with a green media pass and a dark blue longsleeve AE t-shirt on carrying a camera.
How was the meetup? Any links to blog posts?

Ok, So I've made a final decision on the location. We're having it at the Chaat Cafe in San Fransisco. Out of coincidence, it's also the location of the very first meetup way back when (Matt told me this after I found it). Hat tip to Nial Kennedy for the location (found via his blog).
