Hi Dilwyn,

Just to keep you busy with some 'copy' ... :-)


The London QL  Quanta Group started 2011 with its first Meeting of the 
Year on our new schedule - Sunday 13th February 2011.


The Welsh Congregational Chapel has been undergoing extensive 
refurbishment over the latter 2-3 Years.


The Meeting was our first, too, for a long time with the building works 
almost complete.  The main space is now fully opened up together with 
new furniture and a projection screen.  The kitchen is ultra modern, 
along with new toilets.


It makes for an even better Venue for our regular meetings, and for 
potentially holding future workshops.  The location is a basement, which 
means access is via a staircase.


We also welcomed a new member to the Group - Martyn Hill - which is good 
news for the future of the Group. Martyn was immediately 'hands on' with 
his skills in assisting us to restore to life a QL + Gold Card, housed 
in a PC case. A project that we are undertaking for a QL User who is now 
over 80 Years old.



If anyone has any news for inclusion in the next issue of Quanta 
magazine, please send it to me by 5th March.

The deadline for Quanta magazine contributions is approaching (5th 
February) and because the magazine will contain AGM information it 
will have to be done pretty much to schedule (despite technically not 
having an editor...)


If anyone has any material for the news pages, now would be a good 
time to send them to me at: news AT quanta DOT org DOT uk


Thank you,

Hi Dilwyn
 
I recently sent an email message to John G. setting out my own basic philosophy 
regarding my personal approach to my use of QL and it occurs to me that, whilst 
there is a quite brilliant developmental QL concept, there is an aspect of QL 
usage that might well be exploited. What I envisage, is a ' vintage ' approach 
i.e. a sort of re-visit to some of the wonderful software that excited us so 
much when it first appeared and which, even then alerted us to the brilliance 
of the QL. We have the ' Channel 5  Top Gear ' enthusiasts but we also perhaps  
have, people such as myself who have an active nostalgia for things, such as 
'cars of yesteryear' that; though they are in hindsight, recognised as having 
been more than adequate for the purposes for which they were designed, have 
fallen victim to the obsession for unremitting refinement and updating '. It 
may be that, in the realms of computing, I am representing myself as something 
of a ' troglodyte '
 but, I love the QL for what it is, rather than as a springboard for parallel 
identification with systems that, in their sheer scope and brilliance 
are becoming, in my humble opinion, totally unrecognisable as practical, 
straightforward instruments for the extension of our ability to perform 
'ordinary', perhaps even 'mundane' daily tasks for which, our mental capacity 
may be, at times -  to say the least - less than adequate. I know that I am 
probably addressing a dwindling group  of actively interested, people but, if, 
like myself, they are people who have lived with the QL throughout its 
formative years they may well, again like myself, have a hankering to re-visit 
and almost certainly to learn more about the tools we already have to 
hand which justify our conviction as to the soundness of our original choice.

Hi Albert,

I think you are quite right in what you say, that it is never wrong to 
revisit why we all took to the QL in the first place.


I might try to persuade John that we should appeal to people to write 
about subjects like this.


Thinking cap on, to see how best to approach this...
