Fwah.

I seem to be having difficulty with my home internet. I installed a second hub (so my internet connection passes through two hubs to make it to my computer) and now it thinks that there's a cable not connected. So now it's time to do what I do best - look around Google, try a few solutions, perhaps even bang my head in frustration occasionally, but I will make it work. Heh, heh, heh... err, if anyone happens to know why this problem is happening, let me know.

While you ponder such things, let me produce some other things. Whether true or meaningless, realize this: If you create a program, be sure you know how it will be used.

In addition, some fear that digital cameras will prevent future generations from knowing about our culture.

Then, of course, there are the Tek-Gnostics. Taoists of high techonology, I guess. After all, some things stay unchanging, even though they change all the time.

A quote worth mentioning: Q: What did Malaclypse the Younger say to the hotdog man? A: Make me one with everything!

And finally, but not unsurprisingly,

</td><td valign="top">You are a geek liaison, which means you go both ways. You can hang out with normal people or you can hang out with geeks which means you often have geeks as friends and/or have a job where you have to mediate between geeks and normal people. This is an important role and one of which you should be proud. In fact, you can make a good deal of money as a translator.

Normal: Tell our geek we need him to work this weekend.

You [to Geek]: We need more than that, Scotty. You'll have to stay until you can squeeze more outta them engines!

Geek [to You]: I'm givin' her all she's got, Captain, but we need more dilithium crystals!

You [to Normal]: He wants to know if he gets overtime.

You are 42% geek

And what do I do when the year's up and I need to switch them back? (In theory, anyway. I happen to have two cables running up into the room. One might have already been doctored that way. But if not, I'll need to know.)

*sigh* This is a pain to do this sort of thing.
