Apr 22 20:01:51 <Infl8ableSoulm8>	HEAR
Apr 22 20:04:16 <Iowan>	While we wait for others - I just noticed that had AtomicSpark waited another 18 seconds to post the topic...
Apr 22 20:05:00 <Iowan>	20 20:20:20 2010
Apr 22 20:05:35 <AtomicSpark>	You're an odd one. :P
Apr 22 20:06:28 <Infl8ableSoulm8>	doesn't that mean it was posted at 20 20:20:02 2010?
Apr 22 20:06:33 <Infl8ableSoulm8>	close enough.
Apr 22 20:07:07 <Iowan>	Yes - 18 seconds later would have been... ?
Apr 22 20:08:18 <Infl8ableSoulm8>	yeah, but 02 is just 20 backwards, unless you are doing math
Apr 22 20:08:23 <Infl8ableSoulm8>	or bitwise stuff
Apr 22 20:08:59 <Iowan>	Still enough 2's and 0's to get cross-eyed.

Apr 22 20:37:03 <F0o>	may 1
Apr 22 20:37:46 <Iowan>	Yes you may... oh, sorry - that was a date.
Apr 22 20:38:01 <AtomicSpark>	Sure. We could screw around at the library if you insist on installing it (I've been running it for months now)

Apr 22 20:38:08 *	AtomicSpark shrugs
Apr 22 20:38:24 <AtomicSpark>	I'm open to many ideas.
Apr 22 20:38:37 *	AtomicSpark wonders off for a min
Apr 22 20:40:06 <Iowan>	food/beverage selection @library isn't great...
Apr 22 20:40:33 <Iowan>	CD's will end up as coasters @watering holes, though
Apr 22 20:40:56 <F0o>	i guess it depends on what where doing , are we just getting together or installing it and what not
Apr 22 20:42:25 <F0o>	hey where is gringo
