The Check, as they say, Is In The Mail.

I'd like to thank Ken Josenhans (krj) for sending in a check for his $50
pledge (and $3 extra for the infamous Silly Hat Fund).
This means that of the $1035 pledged, we have now collected $630.
If you made a pledge, and haven't paid up yet, please do send in your money.
Or, if you can make the board meeting tonight, bring it there.

I don't have spare cash now, but I should soon.
And long live the Silly Hat Fund!

At tonight's board meeting I was handed a flurry of checks, including quite
a lot of ISDN donations.
Thanks to Larry Kestenbaum (polygon), Misti Tucker (mta), Jared Mauch (jared),
and Dan Romanchek (danr) for helping Grex speed up it's net connection.
We now have $715 of the $1035 that was pledged.

Actually, Jan was so flustered at getting so much money that he underestimated
our good fortune. We have now collected $745 of $1035. If you're one of the
eight people who pledged money but haven't sent it in yet, do please send it.

They're certainly Grex's friends....when properly made out and endorsed,
anyway. :)

So... Can anyone give us an update on the ISDN status? Last I heard we were
waiting for one last bit of wire to be laid, from Darien's apartment complex's
phone box to Darien's apartment, and we hoped that would be done by the end
of September. What's going on now?

The wire was layed, and it was discovered that Ameritech had messed up again,
so they are fixing that now. It's supposedly a problem at the central office.

I believe the ISDN line itself isn't working completely correctly. I
say this after hearing *three* companies in town who are bitching loudly
over installs that seemed ok at first, but then couldn't carry traffic
over them.
