The Harvard Federalist Symposium, Ex Post

Due to Harvard Law School's stinginess with wireless access -- no chance of a non-Harvard student's getting to use it -- my account of the weekend has to come at its end rather than in proper live-blogging style. More connected bloggers have begun filing their reports already:
Waddling Thunder on old judges and ethnic identity;
Will Baude on coffee (concurring with Carina), socializing, Dean Kagan, Arkes and Kozinski, President Summers (who Greg says pushed for Kagan's deanship);
Amber Taylor anticipating boozing, busyness and scandal, and after-the-fact discussion of the Madness of Prof. Arkes;
Mansfield Fox, disappointed by the lack of "sitting around in large leather chairs smoking cigars, drinking brandy and laughing malevolently";
and of course, Ex Post's counterparts at Ex Parte, whose blogging of the event is so thorough that it rather discourages me from transcribing my own notes.
