Grex admins are Grex admins BECAUSE they can't afford to go on vacation for
a month.  Or is it that they can't afford the vacations because they're Grex
admins...?

Geez, Dan, mellow out.  We're well aware you'd like stuff done your way, not
the STeve or Marcus way.  Your input is valuable and appreciated, but you
don't have to act like we've never heard it before.

Your comments are not unreasonable, but they keep showing up in different
areas and it starts to sound a bit over the top in trying to make your case.

It's starting to occur to me that you know Marcus won't like something
if Dan advocates for it, and you know Dan will oppose something if
Marcus wants to implement it. ;)

re #155, 156:  (a casual browse of the garage conference shows that 
        assessment to not always be true, and it's a disservice to 
        both Marcus and Dan to reduce their comments to such simplicity.)

I was being partly facetious.  Marcus and Dan are both highly intelligent
people, and I have a lot of respect for their knowledge.  They're both a
heck of a lot smarter than I am.  But they seem to butt heads a lot, and it
often seems like the arguments turn into contests about who has more geek
credibility more than about the actual merits of their ideas.

Heh.  I once left the dome light on for a week straight in the van I had in
college.  That was one seriously dead battery.  That's also when I found out
you just can't jump-start a Ford V-8 with a totally flat battery off one of
those little "portable jump-start" battery packs.  You just end up with two
dead batteries.

Backtalk was giving me a "500 Internal Server Error" message a few minutes
ago, but it seems to be working again now.

I've locked the car with the engine running... I've left the lights on 
multiple times resulting in dead batteries... There's no end to it

response 165 of 224: Mark Unseen   Jun 5 13:58 UTC 2003

I locked the car with the engine running once.  It's one of those things
that makes you feel so amazingly stupid that, for the first 20 seconds
or so, you stand there tugging the doorhandle unable to believe you've
just done it.

I keep a spare key accessible on the vehicle just in case I have such an
attack of massive stupi... uh, brain fart.  ;)

That's nothing, I locked my car with the engine running, *during a Grex board
meeting*.  I believe it made the minutes.

        I locked my keys in my car (engine off, fortunately) once and the
towing company's driver spend the better part of an hour trying to get in ...
until someone off the street walked over, jimmied the lock in fifteen seconds,
and walked off into the sunset.

Kind of makes you wonder what that person's occupation is, doesn't it? ;)

Why the hell is bbs the default shell for newuser? Methinks bash, or even
party, may be more appropriate.  Then again, unless it's a Grex thing to push
the bbs more than the system, like the web page, I kinda understand the
reasoning, but still
ANyways.
