I am always happy to see how your Brit sense of humor and thick skin
carries you through some of the bastings you occasionally get in the
various lists. Personally, I enjoy your friendly posts and hope to be
reading you for long to come. It's nice to read your relaxed and
chatty posts. ;-)

Myself, I've always found carrier pigeons to be much more good-natured
and friendly than some of the stuff that arrives by e-mail from the
lists. I am intrigued by the "avian carrier experiment".

Hi 
Ok, here is the ping log with very high drop-out rate

Here are some pictures complete with crazy beards and a RedHat

A journo's write-up a few years later when the Isreali team beat the Bergen 
teams results through use of more experienced pidgeon handlers i guess
http://mashable.com/2009/09/10/carrier-pigeons-adsl/
Apparently proving that carrier pidgeons are faster than internet connection in 
certain cases (ie if the pidgeon shows up in good time at the right 
destination).
Regards from
Tom :)

PS a note to anyone new to this list.  We don't normally email about this sort 
of thing lol
