4. Just Read Chapt. 9

Great job. Hard hitting. Rob Behler is a real hero.

[BevHarris]

5. Yes. And he really motivated me --

actually, HE ended up giving ME a little pep talk, full of just plain common sense, sprinkled with biblical wisdom. Do you know, he hasn't really been following this story -- and when Kim Zetter, of WiredNews, asked him if he'd read her story about him he said, "You know, I just didn't have time." (He finally did read it, when he got a link sent to him by e-mail).

He's just really humble, a totally nice guy.

7. Great! Good morning Alastair

(I've finally learned something about time in New Zealand. But it still throws me when it's summer here and he talks about going skiing.)

8. Good morning bev.....

Summer is coming down here now... I guess you are getting colder and colder and the leaves are turning yellow and red.

From the look of things in the slogan thread there seems to be some great brainstorming going on around these parts.

You will be pleased to know I have fixed the images in Inside a Vote Counting Programme...

And.... I can't express how honoured I am by the wonderfully kind mentions about Scoop in Chapter 8.... thanks, thanks and thanks some more.

:)

[JohnGideon]

12. I spent New Years Eve and Day Playing The Bagpipes

In Waipu. Splendid fun. The first pipe band to perform in the new millenium anywhere in the world.

17. My only disappointment with New Zealand...

... is that the points system makes it pretty much impossible for me to get a resident visa....

Cheers, Al.

14. Memos! Memos! Get yer Memos here!

(Just a preview of something coming up folks)

Didn't want to launch a new BBV thread, so I stuck it in here.

[althecat]

15. Very risque there bev...

On the subject of memos this morning I received a newsalert concerning an infoshop.org report that said an ISP had rejected a copyright complaint from Whackamole & Liebold, then infoshop.org promptly disappeared...

They are back up now

EFF: ISP Rejects Diebold Copyright Claims Against News Website

San Francisco - Defending the right to link to controversial information about flaws in electronic voting systems, EFF announced today it will defend an Internet Service Provider (ISP) and a news website publisher against claims of indirect copyright infringement from the electronic voting machines' manufacturer.

On October 10, 2003, electronic voting company Diebold, Inc., sent a cease-and-desist letter to the nonprofit Online Policy Group (OPG) ISP demanding that OPG remove a page of links published on an Independent Media Center (IndyMedia) website located on a computer server hosted by OPG.

16. Whackamole & Liebold vs. Electronic Frontier Foundation

Yup. Watch this one. Watch it also for new developments. Heh.

[althecat]
