Nice work Nate. I have been working on a similar system in which my fridge recognizes that I have leftover turkey, taps into my bread box to check what state my current bread is in and starts my breadmakeer depending on the shade of blue/green mold on the bread. It then runs an analasys of current condiments and determines the best possible sandwich scenario. I then have it relay a message to my wifes cell so she can come make me said sandwich. So far it keeps stalling out on the “wife makes sandwich” part, but I have faith I will get all the bugs worked out eventualy!

Happy New Year, Sue! And Nate, I guess. If he ever comes here any more. Sniff!

I’m with you, Ace; I don’t do Facebook or Twitter or LinkedIn or any of the other social media fads.

Give me Slashdot and CANS and I’m good.

And will you be posting more after this? I don’t do twitter, or tweet. I’ve been hoping it is just a fad that will go away any day now.

Thanks, Nate. I forgot about Hazel. And your opening remarks reminded me about OpenDoc, doomed by the machinations of Microsoft.

I opt for the manual once a week. But I do like Dropbox.

So, Nate. Going to write another novel this month?

Yes. And Steve reminded us to stay foolish, which I certainly will do.

I’ll have to give it a try, although I usually avoid activities that require that I do something.

Great. Another way to waste time. Well, I found the hose. That’s a start, right?

Report back on how that works out, Ace.

My preference is to have Lion installed by an Apple Genius making a house call, and the medium for distribution should be one of those new-fangled 27″ iMacs with the solid-state drives. If I get to choose my Genius, I’ll go with that brunette Rachel. Since I haven’t had a chance to try Lion she’ll have to hang around for awhile and show me the, uh, ropes. I’m particularly interested in multi-touch gestures.

Am I the only one who wishes for Lion on a DVD, who wants to have a copy of the OS on physical media?

I am not rushing to the App Store for Lion.

Nate has magical powers. He can post on the nternet while Lionizing his computer. I have to back up my computer before trying Lion. I have no magical powers.
