Won't watch. :-) [21:25] I'll be busy making cookies [21:25] If the colts pull off 19-0, it will be one hell of a feat [21:25] Dave R., why are you projecting yourself on the ceiling? [21:25] Mmmm, cookies. [21:25] our football's done. Edmonton 38, Montreal 35, in overtime. Hell of a Grey Cup. [21:25] its easier than astral projection [21:26] Oatmeal? Chocolate chip?

The BC Lions were 11-0 in the CFL this year and they finished the season 1-5. [21:27] undefeated can turn around. teams who don't lose don't nkow how to lose, so if they do lose it can really become a problem. [21:27] * Eggsnog DCC's snickerdoodles to RobertB [21:27] Jim M. says "we don't have a bedsheet and some meter probes handy" [21:27] Our district Christmas luncheon is on Wednesday, followed by our union Christmas dinner. (Boy, will I be full on that day!) [21:28] Photo: As a Dolphins fan I hope they lose, but I will give them credit if they do.. They've been impressive. I agree if they lose one, it could get to them mentally.. [21:28] * Eggsnog DCC's snickerdoodles to Dragos [21:28] redrumloa: agreed, but I think they'll do fine. but not 16-0. probably 14-2 or 15-1. [21:28] * RobertB virtually eating snickerdoodles. [21:29] those have "virtually" no calories :9 [21:29] mmmmm, cooookies [21:29] Fine diet food! [21:30] whos going 14-2 [21:30] Left QRoom: ShadowM [21:30] Photo: The other thing is they will be clinching #1 seed probably this week, will they sit out starters to rest them? That's a possibility. [21:31] * CurtisP (MrHorrible@cpe-24-166-34-87.neo.res.rr.com) has joined #c64friends [21:31] who [21:31] Indy Colts, NFL [21:31] * MikeC (~MikeC@CPE000fb552ac59-CM001371b66e78.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com) Quit (Quit: Chatzilla 0.9.68.5.1 [Firefox 1.5/undefined]) [21:31] Hi, Curtis.

[21:32] ello folks [21:32] Howdy CJ [21:33] Dragos: That leaves the possibility of injuries too(just thinking out loud). Wouldn't it suck for them to go 16-0 regular season and then loose in the first round od playoffs? [21:33] Ello... ello... ello. :-) [21:33] actuallym I only have a T/S2068 [21:33] \i even plugged it in once [21:33] redrum: yes it would, but to not go for the perfect season at this point ...... [21:33] Dragos: Agreed, they should go for it [21:34] oh man, is this turning into a sports show? [21:34] they do their plays on sx-64 :) [21:34] Dopple: NFL is the sh't [21:34] I haven't plugged in the two of the PETs that were donated to us. I wonder if they will do anything. [21:34] one way to find out. :) [21:34] redrumloa, oh, i like watching football, i can't stand listening to sports radio :) [21:34] hrm [21:34] i bet they ship to indy just fine :) [21:34] haha [21:34] the capacitors will wxplode [21:34] NFL is the only sports I watch actually [21:34] redrumloa, I really have NO idea how anyone can have 2 hours of sports to talk about EVERY F'IN DAY. [21:35] The one I gave to Jeri just comes up with a bright green screen. [21:35] Im sure they wonder why we're using 20 year old computers too :) [21:35] Dopple: it has something to do with small brains [21:35] hehe [21:35] pet's are fun [21:35] CJ, touche. [21:35] CurtisP, haha [21:35] "Want Hair" [21:35] The former owner of the PETs said they were in a dusty warehouse for years. [21:36] 8032s right robert ? [21:36] warehouse? what else was there? [21:36] CJ, we're really no different than classic car folk. [21:36] Dopple: I'm no sports guru, I'm just a fan. I see some people arguing techincal aspects of the game for hours and I'm bored and lost [21:36] He advises that I clean them out and clean the heads on the 8050's. [21:36] I scored my 128D at a barn auction. [21:36] like my record players [21:36] they sat idle for over 5 years and now neither one wanst to spin [21:36] Yes, Dragos. 8032's. [21:36] Yay, a C128D! [21:37] CurtisP, reseat the chips :] [21:37] robertb: did you ever get your msd going > [21:37] Dopple: I'm mainly clinging to the far fetched hope the 'fins win out and back their way into tht playoffs [21:37] redrumloa, ah. I live 2 hours from Buffalo. I'm used to the news of a local sh:tty team. [21:38] + [21:38] I already have a working MSD-SD2; it's the other one that is half-broken and in need of that transplant drive. (Haven't don it yet). [21:38] Dopple did you make the Toronto expo?

Damon Allen is 42 and he only threw for 5,000 yards this year. terrible quarterback. :) [21:38] CJ, no , I didn't. I didn't even realize it happened, actually. I'm gonna try to attend any future shows...anywhere within driving distance :) [21:38] oh man. [21:38] ok [21:38] yea, i know, i missed out. [21:38] heh [21:39] ya know [21:39] it'd be the only reason for me to take the fast ferry from rochester to toronto. [21:39] robertb: what method of payment you want for the plus/4 ? [21:39] if it stays in business long enuf [21:39] So tell me about the onondaga nation [21:39] How close is driving distance? [21:39] 8hours [21:39] cheap gas, cheap smokes, gambling. [21:39] Dopple: Hell, I remember the days when the Bills inched out the 'fins every year. 4 Super Bowls in a row [21:39] Paypal is easiest. Check/money order is next. [21:40] red, heh...

[22:05] let me get my manual out... [22:05] Ohio has seasons [22:06] SWAP: What is your property tax there? Sales tax? [22:06] sales tax is getting up in the 8-9% range [22:06] OUCH [22:06] I don't remember what our property tax was, but it's not too bad [22:07] Sounds the same as AL(heard 8.5%), nuts [22:07] it's an old, old town. We already have a lot of amenities, and tax increases just get voted down [22:07] Property tax is controlled here in California. Sales tax at 7.25% to 8.25%, depending on area. [22:07] Here in Broward it is only 6% sales tax, but the property tax is nutty [22:08] It doesn't say in the manual, but let me take a look at my 1571 board [22:08] what do you mean by controlled property tax? [22:08] property tax is set by the state anyway [22:08] ya U2 [22:08] we have 20% in italy, don't complain too much or i'll send Berlusconi there :P [22:08] FL property tax is like 3.5% [22:08] Look for Proposition 13 in California in Google. Our property tax is controlled. [22:08] thanx :) [22:09] IAN: But you have free health care, right? [22:09] "free" is a big word. paid with taxes. [22:09] Manual just shows a diagram of the board, and it's the second chip from the edge opposite of the serial connectors [22:09] btw yes, even poor ppl can have health care [22:09] IAN: hehe, my point is they screw us all one way or another [22:09] always ;) [22:10] I pay ~$230 every 2 weeks for medical insurance [22:10] For a super CRAP hmo [22:10] oh [22:10] that sux [22:11] * MikeC (~MikeC@CPE000fb552ac59-CM001371b66e78.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com) has joined #c64friends [22:11] my employer pays a big chunk of mine, I think I have to foot the bill for about $40-50 a week.

[22:11] shrug [22:11] i dunno [22:11] just being the mostest friendliest. [22:11] Dopple: You probably pay for an individual, right? I pay for "employee plus 4+ dependants" [22:11] Hey redrumloa. our tax in citrus county is 1.1% [22:11] Ok... [22:11] redrumloa, actually, married couple. [22:12] Oh [22:12] plus/4 dependants? [22:12] Pretty good [22:12] I have two Plus/4 dependants. [22:12] :) [22:12] i'll have one soon :) [22:12] oh, what is the german translation of Vic, anyway? [22:12] Dragos: Sweet [22:12] Vixen? [22:13] Power Co. help pay our [22:13] Dragos, they're cool, the built in software is crap, tho. [22:13] Cost of living in FL is getting nutty tough, the power company just raised rates AGAIN. This time 20% for residential [22:13] My average electric bill is going up ~$50 a month [22:14] 5% just this year in Cincinnati [22:14] Summer elec bill will be $300-$350 [22:14] the TED coulda been a cool computer [22:14] the Plus/4 was an example of a computer being screwed up [22:14] Is that per month, redrum? [22:14] I have Fl. Power [22:15] too bad theres no jdos for plus/4 [22:15] or vic for that matter [22:15] Good evening every one [22:15] Robert: Yes per month, Winter isn't as bad, but it will be in the $200-$250 range in winter [22:15] Very true, Dragos. [22:15] AB: FPL? [22:15] Wow, my electric bill never goes above $70 a month. [22:15] #cbm8 is where it's at! [22:15] The same for gas. [22:16] well, until you get memory expansion on the Vic20, JDos is kind of a waste [22:16] Robert: So you pay about $140/month for energy? [22:16] No gas here.. [22:16] Florida Power El. Co. [22:16] There are disk speeders for the Plus4. Are there VIC-20 disk speeders? [22:17] Oh, different power co. We have FPL, Florida Plunder & Loot [22:17] tape speeders for sure [22:17] No, redrum. That is maximum. Usually I pay far less. [22:17] O.K. [22:17] hmmmm, 99, driver error, 00 ,00 [22:17] on 1571 [22:17] dragos: that sounds like a cmd drive error [22:17] September was about $40 to $45 for electricity and gas. [22:17] just put jdos in [22:18] Robert: Really? How big of a pad? [22:18] How many people using? [22:18] 3-bedroom, 1550 square feet. Just myself. [22:18] * redrumloa nods [22:19] vic-20 doesn't really need speeders [22:19] how long does it take to load 3K from disk, after all? [22:19] Hey robert.. I am finally in Vancouver :-) Now no excuse not to come see Quaterflash [22:19] Why is that, Curtis? How about a nice DOS wedge? [22:19] Ah, you missed them by about 3 months, Destined. ;-) [22:20] My vic has 32K... [22:20] yes there was a Vic-20 Dos Wedge [22:20] didn't someone demo a VIC fastloader/wedge cart at our expo this year? [22:20] Ooo, that would be interesting, Dave R. [22:20] Dos Wedge is different than a speedloader tho [22:20] True, Snog. [22:20] my vic has 40k [22:21] mine could but I'd need another 8K expander. but you can't load all 40K at once anyway :) [22:21] 32 then 8 :) [22:21] sure you can :) [22:21] it isn't contiguous... you'll overwrite i/o won't you? [22:22] with custom tape loader you can skip blocks [22:22] custom tape loaders work on floppy? [22:22] Destined, you can still see Marv and Rindy Ross of Quarterflash in the Trail Band concerts that are happening all over Portland now for the holidays.

Spend three weeks 6 hours a day 6 days a week on Pool. If the price is right and the code wheels are included score them up. [23:08] code wheels, and maps, and assorted other goodies :) [23:08] Or DL them from The Village BBS, cracked [23:08] {Garth SX} trying to make sense of the add it lists all maps-books-disks [23:09] and if the hint books are included even better [23:09] Also editors availible at the BBS [23:09] {Garth SX} supposedly a limited edition thing [23:09] Gold Box set, commercial hype from T$R [23:09] Good games, I'm stuck in Curse as my party is all Demihuman.

[23:13] {Garth SX} what is your bbs? [23:13] http://qlink.istheshit.net/ [23:13] Garth: Gotta a 128D for sale tested. [23:13] Lordronin: there is also passwords half way through the games [23:13] You know, LR... Warp11... Star Trek rock 'n roll. [23:13] better remove those too [23:14] RobertB: Ah I should have known the connection. [23:14] {Garth SX} just exported my spare 128 to canada to kilrpilr [23:14] :-) [23:14] LordRonin: youve played them all, you should know that. [23:14] EroSennin: in Ultima VI? Or in the other mentioned games? [23:14] in SSI games [23:14] EroSennin: Nope haven't gone through all of them. Still the hard core dice RPGer. [23:15] Only finished Poll. Lets not talk about Wasteland [23:15] oops read that as pool [23:15] {Garth SX} used to d+d when i was younger with dice and all [23:15] * JLawless (JLawless@dialup-4.254.211.242.dial1.denver1.level3.net) has left #c64friends [23:15] Garth: I still do have a Marvel Basic Super game in 30 mins. Rest of the week it is Traveller. [23:16] FWIW play 1st ed AD&D. BTW: still hunting for old tools and utilis for any RPG. [23:17] Err should add that these must be for C= use. [23:17] Old or new for preservation on the BBS and the U.G. library [23:18] {Garth SX} might check out gb64 and run it in vice as have never seen the c= versions running [23:18] Garth: I only run C=. So that is all that I have seen on the games etc. [23:19] {Garth SX} do you need content for the bbs as I7m getting quite good at uploading with this c= [23:19] * HousBinPh (~Sock@68.171.82.132) Quit [23:19] * CheechMon (cheechmong@229.orlando-05rh15-16rt.fl.dial-access.att.net) Quit [23:19] wow, an offer to upload at long distance... [23:19] Nice. [23:20] {Garth SX} that is why the REU to make life easier for the 1541 [23:20] Garth: Got 3251 files at the moment. no where near the max yet. Got 4 BBS's that I have preserved to test for files. Always need more. You are welcome to jack into the matrix at The Village. To U/D [23:20] * redrumloa (~lucifer@adsl-10-211-128.mia.bellsouth.net) Quit [23:20] {Garth SX} novaterm actually supports the georam that i have here [23:20] Frell we talk about AD&D and lose people again [23:21] Garth: What version of NovaTerm? [23:21] Nah, LR. Don't blame yourself. [23:21] {Garth SX} 9.6 i think [23:21] RobertB: Blame or credit? Garth: Got that on the BBS with Pathc "C" and doc if you need it. [23:21] What happened to Snoggy? [23:21] <-- [23:21] {Garth SX} incognito [23:22] Wildstar: Official ACUG announcement. Destined is now the new #8 [23:22] Ronin: who was the old #7? [23:22] Too much of the creamy bubbly for Snog. :-) [23:22] who was the old #8 [23:22] 8 I meant [23:22] destined: Wildstar [23:22] ROFL [23:22] Hey, I have a number, too! [23:22] Hope I can live up to wildstar rep [23:22] {Garth SX} next question this is a telnet bbs? [23:22] user list update changed somehow? [23:23] ;-p [23:23] {Garth SX} i have no modem [23:23] Yuppers you are #10 BTW the max for the board is 999. Reset now to 500. When ever Jim sends the linux box for the telnet [23:23] No, you have to dial in. [23:23] Oh ok. [23:23] {Garth SX} mores the point i have no phone line [23:23] Garth: Say now I can help you with an Aprotech 2400 for the C= in the box. [23:23] #8 is now Destined [23:24] Ok, I'll get a new number later. [23:24] Garth: Talk to the head QGuide john Baker. He can explain how he rings us up <#13> with the laptop and cell phone. [23:24] That would equate to about 1 disk side in 20 minutes [23:24] {Garth SX} i have a 2400 baud flashtalk some where but no way of testing it [23:25] {Garth SX} I'm in australia that would cost heaps [23:25] * OSS542 (~jhart@l215088.ppp.asahi-net.or.jp) Quit (Quit: [x]chat) [23:25] Eggsnog: negitive. I make all files that size as zipped .D64s [23:25] Garth: Well sometime soon brain will send me the linux box so I can make the BBS direct dial and telnet. Then you can call a real C= BBS without worring about the LD charges. [23:26] {Garth SX} will look forward to that as there arent many working at the moment [23:27] There are several that are telnetBBS tho [23:27] {Garth SX} jeffs,CJ's and sonic temple at the moment [23:27] I thought there were more than 3? [23:27] there are [23:27] Pnscolada's bbs is down because he is working on some bugs with image 2.0 [23:27] {Garth SX} pina has been down for weeks now [23:27] * CurtisP (MrHorrible@cpe-24-166-34-87.neo.res.rr.com) Quit (Ping timeout: 256 seconds) [23:28] Since Im a whore : telnet://madworld.bounceme.net :) [23:28] {Garth SX} I have a stack of disks ready to send [23:28] Cj: lol [23:29] Haven't heard from Pina for a while. Bout ready to drop him from the exchanges. [23:29] I've been to CJ's telnet BBS. [23:29] {Garth SX} I have to pick the size of app for your bbs though anything over 200 blocks it chokes on me [23:29] LR, he was here a few days ago. [23:29] Robert, I have no idea why we had problems with you the time you called. I've not been able to duplicate the problem. [23:30] Pna was on irc today. [23:30] Ah, such is life, CJ. [23:30] pna poop!!! [23:30] Yeah, and get this [23:30] :D [23:30] I've been working on so many things recently. Was only able to be here last sunday to apologise for missing saturday. The C= is a heavy task mistress. [23:30] Garth cant upload anything over 200blocks to it for some reason. [23:30] She is? [23:30] I cant duplicate that one either [23:31] CJ: What BBS Os are you running? [23:31] {Garth SX} I'm sure a timer is cutting me off as the sx just keeps trying to send after the line is dropped [23:31] FWIW I'm running Cedntipede 128 [23:31] maybe the user timer is not turned off during upload? [23:31] Garth how have you set your term prg for ULs? [23:32] {Garth SX} with pina's one I've uploaded 5 full disks in a row [23:32] Some BBS programs allow unlimited time if you are uploading [23:32] Eggsnog: True, but also that is a setting for the user from the SysOp [23:32] Garth, I know, and people have uploaded whole disks to mine as well. I have No clue whats broken. I will continue to look into it though. [23:33] {Garth SX} not sure how novaterm is set but has worked without fault on 2 bbs CJ's one just doesnt like my c [23:33] IS CJ'S emulated or other? [23:33] its a commodore 128 [23:33] Centipede [23:34] {Garth SX} maybe 2400 baud is not fast enough to turn the timer off [23:34] CJ: That is what I run as well. [23:34] Garth, could be [23:34] Garth SX that could be a possibility as well [23:34] so its dropping carrier on you? [23:35] or not letting you upload? [23:35] I remember local BBS's giving more time to people with faster modems [23:35] Garth: No that doesn't seem right. I have a caller with DL problems. Gets carrier drop after 4 files. All I can say is that the term prg name and the BBS protocl name are the same. But not the actual protocol. [23:35] {Garth SX} as that bbs is capable of quite high speed [23:35] {Garth SX} much more than a stock sx can do [23:35] Garth: I can say that 300 is too slow to connect if the BBS is running the SCPU. Just had that shwon to me. [23:36] Maybe its not syncing right, 2400 baud coming in and its trying 38400 between the bbs and PC. maybe it loses sync somehow. [23:36] I dont know. [23:36] {Garth SX} I'm running at 2400 but thats likely peak speed may not be continuous [23:36] Maybe I could try another version of TCPSER. [23:36] CJ: FWIW I'm working with Dynamite to have the Centipede hub on my HD for the telnet operation. [23:36] * CJ is at a loss [23:37] Garth: I logged onto the net, telnet boards on other platforms and local BBS's of other platforms with 2400 on a C= with NovaTerm and later DesTerm [23:37] {Garth SX} i have ccgms here might see if its any better [23:37] * TerryM (~TerryM@ip70-173-36-60.fv.dl.cox.net) has joined #c64friends [23:37] Hoi Terry: [23:37] Howdy TerryM [23:38] Tardstar! [23:38] LR good luck with the Telent piece [23:38] Hey terrym [23:38] Hi, Terry. [23:38] Hello [23:38] Garth: No I had Chameleon/CSD and Scratcher of the old Bass planet use CCGMS. They could not U/D on my Centipede BBS. [23:38] LR, so what could be the problem man? [23:38] {Garth SX} I use desterm on my 128 but it has no c/g graphics [23:38] Do I need to radically change something? [23:39] Hey, I use Desterm, too! [23:39] CJ. Dynamites HD went tits up. So it is in limbo. He got it from Mike. The web host for the files. But he ran it on VT-128. [23:39] {Garth SX} and terrible for transfers i just couldnt configure it [23:39] LR: did you boot tardstar from your bbs? [23:39] I figured mine out. [23:40] {Garth SX} novaterm is the simplest one to use [23:40] Desterm just needs configured, but it can do C/G graphics [23:40] CJ: not that I know of, I think it is more of the callers configuration. I have mine on a 128D with 4.3Gb HD and a SCPU. [23:40] Tell me how, Snog (eagerly listening). [23:40] emulation, commodore [23:40] EroSennin: To the best of my knowledge. No one of that handle has loged into my BBS. [23:41] Lord: I mean WIldstar [23:41] It's something easier done in person, than try to explain... [23:41] RobertB: True, but you are still in Anis. Rather than normal C= gfx. [23:41] But each number you call can set different character fonts [23:41] {Garth SX} I have put the 128 away as i ran out of deskspace plus sx are more abundant here than 128s [23:41] Ah, that won't be for awhile then, Snog. [23:41] The real sad thing is I cant duplicate garths problem with uploading. [23:42] EroSennin: Ah the EX #8 of the Village. No, he expired because he didn't log on and was in the weed out. [23:42] desterm is easy to use, read the docs [23:42] it's a configuration you must do within your phonebook entries [23:42] I have the docs and I have read them. [23:42] dont understand? [23:42] {Garth SX} the bbs just drops the line around block 200 I know the sx can do it as it has many times on pina [23:43] {Garth SX} pinas bbs [23:43] We are considering testing out DesTerm for this BBS. The old one I ran had horrible C= gfx. [23:43] If you cannot help, then you cannot help. [23:43] hmm, havent got my 128 set up, or I could step you through it. [23:43] {Garth SX} all those sid disks about9 were uploaded on the one day [23:43] hmm, some got it as d81 or so? [23:43] :) [23:44] Ya, my 64C is on my desk at the moment, the 128D is not hooked up [23:44] Garth: I'm still working on the 9+ megs that Sir Fitzz sent me of SID. [23:44] Eggsnog: Well I'm on a 128D at the moment. [23:44] *Garth SX 64c died [23:44] Time to bow our heads. [23:45] Bummer man. I only have breadboxes in the shop, couple of flat 128s and a 128D. The only 64c is used by me. [23:45] time get out the soldering iron [23:45] Or the BFH [23:45] hahaha [23:45] 20lber [23:45] {Garth SX} was a bit sad as it was as new to look at lasted a month [23:45] When all else fails, Violence prevails [23:45] mwhah [23:46] {Garth SX} was got to spare the sx but the sx wont die [23:46] Maxim from my electronics instructor in college [23:46] Too bad you don't have a repair tech near you, Garth. [23:46] Garth: Well I got a pal +4 that I can't use here in NTSC land. [23:46] {Garth SX} nobody here in australia that i know of [23:47] LR, yes, you can. You just have to get a PAL monitor and make it work here. [23:47] Got a few 64s that are dead in storage for parts. if it is a simple thing and the parts are compatible. I can strip one for you. [23:47] {Garth SX} on the newer tv sets they have both formats [23:47] Not here, Garth. [23:47] Robert: Rather trade it for a page fox, video fox, or animation station. [23:48] Oooo. [23:48] Hey, I have Animation Stations. [23:48] {Garth SX} was going to give it to alih for parts as they turn up from time to tine and this one works ok [23:48] Nah here they are NTSC biased. Though there are if you hunt and pay the extra some video machines that are supposed to do PAL. Same for video cameras. [23:48] Garth: My feelings for alih are not expressible in this IRC. [23:49] hah weeeeeeeee [23:49] There snoggy should be happy with that reply [23:49] I have a page fox [23:49] {Garth SX} I wonder how kilrpilr will get on with the pal 128D i sent him? [23:49] How much TerryM. KilrPilr wants $50 USD for his. [23:49] Garth: use a pal monitor he might have? [23:49] You are lucky, Terry. [23:50] I've got a Computer Eyes, ah read that as an extra [23:50] {Garth SX} hope so as he still has to find 220 volts to feed it with too [23:50] RobertB: Though I appreciate you droipping out of the video fox thing. Can you tell me why? [23:51] Garth: Invertor [23:51] {Garth SX} but he wanted that particular model [23:51] Gpot such things at Radio Shack here [23:52] Gang goota split. Sloshed and have the aforementioned game to run. Merry Xmas and Happy Chanukha to all. See you next week, if not before [23:52] VideoFox is a different program, LR> [23:52] niters LordRonin [23:52] * LordRonin (~lordronin@vcsweb.com) Quit (Quit: Leaving) [23:52] {Garth SX} with the graphics he could likely use the composite part [23:52] Ronin: :-0 what would happen if I have a collection of files that are more than 14 megs in size to upload? [23:52] * CJ Celebrates Kwanzaa [23:52] oops [23:52] {Garth SX} and cga monitors work fine for 80 col stuff [23:52] * RobertB celebrates only 5 more workdays. [23:53] RobertB are you retiring? [23:53] Nope, vacation. [23:54] Ohhh [23:54] Xmas vacation? [23:54] Yes, for 3 weeks. [23:55] going anywhere fun? [23:55] Handy scanner and page fox $75.00 us [23:55] Just up to the parent's hometown and back and then Las Vegas. [23:56] Good luck! [23:56] win lots! [23:56] I guess both of those could be fun :) [23:56] Don't need a Handyscanner... have one already. [23:56] Nah, going to Las Vegas on CommVEx business. [23:57] 2005 or 2006?

[23:57] CommVex-V2 [23:58] I hope so, though the Las Vegas club is giving me very little help organizing. [23:58] Good name, Snog. Better than CommVEx 2006. [23:58] Maybe they don't want to sponsor it?

[00:01] still lots of people here, that's good ;0 [00:01] erm [00:01] :) [00:01] No, Bruce has bowed out of CommVEx. [00:01] That was pretty far for him to travel [00:01] yep [00:02] even if it was airplane [00:02] Yes... and he drove it, too! [00:02] It was nice to meet him the last time [00:02] Good guy! I still remember the sushi all-you-can-eat on Sunday night after CommVEx. [00:02] Tasty! [00:03] Is it still the same time of the year? [00:03] Yes, Snog, I'm aiming for the last weekend of July. [00:03] July 29-30. [00:03] Same time as Defcon. [00:04] If it pulls off, that could be the first expo of the year... [00:04] Ah, you forget MossyCon. :-) [00:04] rofl [00:04] mossycon [00:05] I thought that was in December? [00:05] No, april or so [00:05] MossyCon is during Spring Break.
