Grex Agora Item 2: Announcement Item - Fall 2015/Winter 2016
Entered by cfadm on Thu Dec 31 16:38:49 UTC 2015:

This is the general announcements item - the first of several
announcement items.  Later items are more specific - announcements
about Grex, Grex system problems, why you're happy, why you're
bummed, etc.

If you have something general to announce to Grexers, this is the
place to put it!

57 responses total.

Just wanted to announce that I responded to the question in Coop about
my  nomination. I declined. Thank you all!

This looks like a good place to post this link:

The title is "Drowning Doesn't Look Like Drowning," so that's my
announcement: drowning doesn't look like drowning.

resp:9 Good announcement! Here are some practical exercises:

See if you can spot the drowning person before the lifeguard. Unless you have 
some training or experience, you may not be able to.

#15 of 57 by cross on Sun May 28 16:13:47 2017:

Edit your .cfonce or .cfrc of wherever you define your pager; if you're
using less, add -E; if more, add -e. I think. Check the man page; the
option says to exit whenever it hits EOF.

Any GCp or cobol experts in the house interested in a bit of IBM mainframe
freelance work?
Let me know

I worked with COBOL on mainframes some 18 years ago. If you can not find
anyone to help, I may be able to take a look.

It's not everyday when you can announce a new BBS.
A friend of mine resurrected his old BBS, The Lost Cavern. 
Runs on a Commodore 64, so you can use Petscii and 40/80 columns.
If you want so see petscii with a terminal emulator, I suggest using
"Syncterm". If you want to check it out, here's the information:

I probably should have announced it sooner than Fall 2015/Winter 2016
but  Grex Agora is my blog. I hope you've been enjoying it. Bitcoin
wallet  address will be provided for interested donors who want to buy
me some  duct tape and a blue tarp.

Is there an alternative?

I've never had a Tab or a Shasta.
Honestly, I don't think I've had a Coke or Pepsi for years. 
I grew up on it so it's so strange when I think about it. 
I slug coffee (even at night) and sometimes I have a rare unsweetened
ice  tea.

Remember that Start Trek Generation scene where the Borg Hue tells
Picard  posing as Locutus that he will not assimilate Jordi? Someone
should show  that scene to Biden to change his mind about the OSHA
mandate.  Fucking traitors and tyrants.

Don't show Biden anything about the Borg. He will think it's a good idea.

Pericarditis? Is that the addiction to cardigan sweaters?

Rumor is that Grex is going to quit before it's fired.
Sanjay is in the lobby with his new badge.
I saw some boxes near the conference rooms, which are all booked for the
day. Linda from HR was crying in the elevator.

re #35
Grex was tired of being talked down to and being micromanaged.
Ajilonentureware has been outsourced to replace it.
Thanking you kindly, sir.
