[WISPA] Sorry OT

2010-01-12 Thread lakeland
Every day I read, attend webinars and conferences. And do everything I can to 
keep up with the technology curve. 

And then something like the movie Avatar comes along and I realize how far 
behind I really am.

Imax 3D and video animation unlike any other. Totally incredible.

Go for the reality check

Bob,

That story is a scream. I read it aloud to my fiance and we were both
cracking up. Thanks for sharing. If the tale every strangely morphs in
to motorcycle road trips, then I'll share one of mine.

WOW. I HATE Bees  I bet that was fun when you opened that up!

Reminds me of when I installed a system in North Carolina about 15 years
ago.  We installed some equipment in a communications shed (and I mean
shed!) at the base of a tower. Picture this 300' guyed tower in the
middle of a field with a 10' x 15' wooden shed underneath it. The grass
is like waist high.  the whole time I am walking up to this thing I am
thinking ticks and bees.

So I unlock the door and turn the light on and do a quick look around
inside. I wait about 15 seconds and finally feel at ease that there are
no bees waiting inside for me.

The shed has around 10 radio repeater cabinets inside and the walls
are covered in insulation.  There are wires and transmission line all
over the place. No sheetrock. In addition the ceiling also was covered
in insulation but whoever put it up probably spent a whole 10 minutes
doing it. Several sections were hanging down.

The lighting really sucked. One 60 watt light bulb screwed into a
ceramic base. And with some of the insulation hanging down around it
some of the shed was pretty dark.

I remember it was cool outside and windy so the guy I was working with
decided to close the door so it would be a little warmer. 10 repeater
cabinets, some with high power paging transmitters, create a lot of heat
so it made a big difference with the door closed.

So we start to mount a plywood backboard to the studs of the back wall
so we would have something to mount our wall mount equipment cabinet to.

I am drilling in deck screws when the battery operated Hilt drill gun
dies. Being lazy and not wanting to go back out to the truck 1/4 mile
across the the windy, tall grass field in the middle of no-name North
Carolina the guy I am working with decides to hit the screws in with a
hammer. This was NOT a good idea!

On the third wack a section of insulation on the ceiling by the door
falls down and this 50' BLACK SNAKE ( he was really only about 2-3' )
falls to the floor between us and the door! Suddenly my fear of bees
fell to the number 2 position.

We both screamed like little girls (the snake was a mute but he had his
mouth open too!).

We knew we had to get out of there. All I could think of was SNAKE BITE,
POISON, ANTIVENOM, HELICOPTER,  MEDEVAC, PAIN, NO CELL PHONE SERVICE,
etc in about 1/2 second.

Suddenly my guy grabs a piece of  2x3 wood stud to beat this snake to a
pulp. ANOTHER BAD IDEA

He swings the stud and hits the light bulb and its lights out in this
freakin' snake infested casket  And 100ms later I feel this THING 
slide across the top of my work boot and I was mobile!

I pushed the other guy to one side and ran towards the last known
location of the door. What I didn't know was the insulation was hanging
in front of the door after he swung the stud and I ran face first into
it about 3' from the door. Of course I was not expecting ANYTHING to hit
my face so I started swinging like mad, got disoriented and realized
that the door wasn't where it was.

I stopped moving. He stopped moving.

We decided to feel around for something familiar so we could get our
bearings. Of course the whole time we are doing this we are thinking the
snake is on the floor. WRONG!

My guy reaches out and touches one of the repeater cabinets and says he
knows where the door is and orients me. While he has his hand on top of
the cabinet THE SNAKE SLIDES ACROSS IT 

He screams and we both bolt to the door and out into the field.

To say the least I did not go back in. He called me all kinds of names
and as a result (and the fact that I was his boss) he finished all the
indoor work with the door wide open and mason's boots on.

And he was very gentle and quiet.

I don't know what happened to the snake but if I was him I would be
around the Panama Canal right now.  I'm sure he was just as scared as us
but I didn't hang around to interview him.

Always be careful no matter what you are doing.

And Happy Halloween

Another Broadband Tech Exec Says There's No Bandwidth Crunch, Techdirt
We've pointed out in the past that whenever you hear warnings about a coming 
broadband crunch, it almost always comes from consultants and politicians. If 
it comes directly from companies, it's inevitably from the CEO or lobbyists. 
Yet, when you talk to execs who actually are technologists (even at telcos) 
they're quite willing to admit that the whole broadband crunch issue is 
something of a myth. All you need to do is regular upgrades to the network, and 
most recognize that there's no risk to a network getting

IPv6: Zeno's Paradox and Invisible Brick Walls, CircleID
As we continue our ride toward the exhaustion of IPv4 addresses, Regional 
Internet Registries public discussion groups such as the ARIN PPML mailing list 
remain filled with endless discussions on how large swaths of allocated IPv4

Reflections on the 10th Anniversary of the Sonny Bono Act, PK
The 10th anniversary of the DMCA is not the only infamous 10th anniversary that 
Public Knowledge gets to “celebrate” this week. Yesterday was the 10th 
anniversary of the enactment of the Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act of 
1998. That law extended copyright terms from 50 years after the life of an 
author and 70 years in the case of corporations, to 70 years beyond the life of 
an author and 95 years in the case of corporations. Named after Sonny Bono, the 
late Congressman best known for his musical and
