until I get back from San Francisco, Tuesday next-next week. I'm going away on Sunday evening. A whole week of doing absolutely NOTHING. I hope you all will have fun, doing whatever boring stuff you do at work. :snicker: :-D -- Counting the days in the haze around you Susanne let the ether fall Out of phase, I am all around you Susanne on the wall
I just came back from there :) Cool city.

Hey Jörgen - in case you hadn't noticed - much of the early internet and most of the PC revolution was "invented" within about 20 miles of San Francisco. They are considered one of the broadband capitals of the world. I'm thinking you'll be able to find the occassional connection to check in at CP. ;P ;P ;P Mike Mullikin :beer:
We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star. But we can understand the Universe. That makes us something very special.

Stephen HawkingI might check in. I *might*. But I don't think I will have time for it to be honest. Maybe Friday, Saturday next week. I will however try to stay away from computers as much as possible. I really need this vacation. I'm beginning to hate computers. :| -- Counting the days in the haze around you Susanne let the ether fall Out of phase, I am all around you Susanne on the wall

Yes it is! I've been there one time before briefly. This time I will get to know every corner of the city. :) -- Counting the days in the haze around you Susanne let the ether fall Out of phase, I am all around you Susanne on the wall

Enjoy. I loved San Francisco and I'm still trying to persuade my wife to move there. I can't understand why anyone would want to move from there to here (Phoenix) but then again, there is much about the American psyche I don't understand :) Rob Manderson http://www.mindprobes.net

I can't imagine anyone voluntarily even visiting Phoenix. Bullhead City is heaven by comparison. Phoenix has all of the problems of Los Angeles with none of the cultural benefits; as a bonus it's much hotter, and during the monsoon season it's about as pleasant as living in a sweaty armpit. On the bright side, if you happen to be caught in a drive-by shooting, you're allowed to shoot back.:-D

Apparently they just drove through and liked the place so much they decided to move here :omg: For myself, I can't tell one part of the place from any other.

Yeah, but TCP/IP et al was invented over there by Vinton Cerf I believe (and some other guys, I forget). Sure, we could've had HTTP over some OSI stack now. But that would have been a bitch - OSI was way to over pretentious! -- Counting the days in the haze around you Susanne let the ether fall Out of phase, I am all around you Susanne on the wall
