Yup, I'm going to Montreal for a Statistics meeting, and on Thursday I'll leave to Vancouver until August 1st, to do a short stay in the SF university.

What are the interesting things ro do in those places? Any member from the area wants to meet-up?

If your in Montreal.. hit up the french district. Great Cafes, Restaurants and food. Then if your bored.. Check out "La Ronde" on the St. Lawrence its a pretty cool amusement park if your into roller coasters.

Pyrokilla is in Vancouver Island... If you're staying in SFU (Simon Fraser University), you'll be in the mainland... The EA hq is also in the mainland...

The VAT tax here in Spain is 16% for almost everything, but usually prices show it included.

Hmm... Well, I guess you're used to it then.... But taxes here aren't included in the price shown, so you'll be left calculating in your head... Be prepared for weird weather in Vancouver cuz it changes from rain to shine to rain again here in hours...

Well, I've got a degree in Mathematics and I study the phD in Statistics, so that's not a problem :D
About the weather, I guess it will be colder than here, no doubt. And that's good :cool:

It's not that cold here really... It can get really hot in here... Sometimes hotter than Los Angeles heat IMO... Plus, you're gonna be here in the summer, so I think it'll be more sunshine...
