Thats cool, I will just go there on Tuesday night as I have been 
planning for the last couple of semi-decades and see some of what I 
might have been missing out on if I could have got there on Thursday, 
Altered Eegos Toast still on the menu there?

It actually would be better for me on Thursday night.

What does everybody else think?



Thursday was, I thought, the day agreed to at the last meeting.

Unfortunately I have a funeral to attend.

And any moment now we hear the tread of jackboots ... ;)

 but that is confusing capability with intention, isn't it, ossifer?  
(It's similar to the way I'd like to take down the spam botnets - hash the 
values they have in the master computers, assign hashes to days, and when 
both coincide, the spam gets dumped on the master computers where it

Wesley I ment and intended to say that you manually controlled the phasing of 
the lights so you decided at random when they'd all go red or green or 
Flashing yellow.

But hell you came up with a good idea, I just wanted to keep in the CLUG
