The Man with The Stat Plan: Rob Slazas!
Last week, Rob Slazas just happened to be in the Los Angeles area so he and I met up and had some scrumptious sushi. For more than a year now, he’s been providing us with great ideas and support when it comes to the website. He has authored some pretty cool posts that mainly focus on statistics, but he also has well known love-affair with the TEXTSCAN function. He has been a great help getting this MATLAB blog to where it is today, so when he told me that he would be in town for a day or two, I jumped on the chance to meet up with my fellow blogger.
Here we are at the local sushi restaurant, about to feast on the food.

Two Engineers is One Too Many
So what happens when two engineers get together? Well, the inner geek takes over and the discussions inevitably turn towards topics of statistics, numbers, mathematics, MATLAB, and other nerd related things. We actually spent some time discussing a problem that we will be presenting in the immediate future, so stay tuned for that. And for the sake of not boring the readers, I will omit the rest of the details on our conversation.
Lunch, Anyone?
If any of our readers are in the Los Angeles or Boston area and would be interested in meeting the folks behind blinkdagger, leave a comment and maybe we can meet up for lunch/dinner and some intellectual and stimulating MATLAB conversation!

I must say, Quan, that you are looking quite dashing in this photo! Is this what you wear to work as a systems engineer?
Hello Uyen,
Usually I wear full suit and tie. I didn’t want to intimidate Rob so I decided to dress down.
