I think you meant c-shells.

As the owner of an '87 Jaguar XJ6 I have to agree with you. There are so many relays tucked away in odd, hard to reach locations sometimes I wish the ECU's were more complex back then.

Although my car still has its original wiring harness smoke installed, it does have some electrical gremlins that I'm having a devil of a time tracking down.

Yeah, like he said. Geeks.

Too bad the Atlantians didn't think of this.

As a So. Californian who now lives in So. Maryland. I have to say that people really over reacted out here.
I didn't even notice it until the window blinds started rattling.

I feel a folk style organizing song coming on. What's the IT equivalent of silichosis?

Writing, compiling, and debugging code is not the only definition of real work.
Opening an email, reviewing a document, making a couple of edits, and responding is "real work" for a lot of people.
Even Autodesk has an app out that allows some editing of basic geometry of existing dwg files on an iPad. I don't know how well it works as I just read about it the other day, but it is something I'm going to look into.

I've got an old Luxo lamp iMac with a G4 that I don't use since getting the Mini. But can't seem to part with it despite it just sitting on the floor of my studio.

Be careful on the mini purchases. System specs for Lion calls for minimum processor of core 2 duo. Early core solos need not apply. Sadly my poor old mini doesn't make the grade.

The Pilot Razorpoint pens would work quite well on anything.

It's a kickass power cruiser from Yamaha from back in the 1980's.

I did this once as well. The joker ambushed me as I was taking my groceries in. The guy had no idea what Taoism was, and his only response after I finished explaining to him was. "But what if you're wrong?" My response was to pose his own question back him, and finish unloading my groceries.

That joke was around a long time before Emo Philips. All he did was make it longer.
