    Yakuzza Lethecus: i relog real quick

     

    Qt Core: back to beloved text ;-)

     

    Fox Monacular: so is this every friday?

     

    Fael Innovia: almost every friday I think :)

     

    Eden Haiku: Yes, from 12 to 1 Fox.

     

    Zen Arado: yes Fox

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: the sun is shining outside

     

    Fox Monacular: cool:)

     

    Fael Innovia: there's a notice about it :)

     

    Fox Monacular: quite a different feeling

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: and its 9pm

     

    Fox Monacular: yes, right, I was just so busy, I couldn't keep up with notices

     

    Eden Haiku: It is very different, isn'it?

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Nope, can't hear a thing

     

    Eden Haiku: Wb Yaku,

     

    Fox Monacular: we're on chat now, Arch

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: tap tap tap

     

    Zen Arado: I've gone deaf

     

    Eliza Madrigal: We're back on text now Arch :)

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: is all i can hear

     

    Fael Innovia: no-one on the voice anymore I think (can't know since I turned it off alraedy)

     

    Zen Arado: feels like

     

    Wol Euler: now that we are in official session time, has anyone briefed Maverick and asked him about the recording?

     

    Eden Haiku: Taking off headset...

     

    Fox Monacular: yes, very different:), and a new level of embodiment

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: recording?

     

    Eden Haiku: We can hear so much in voices!

     

    Fox Monacular: yes, recording

     

    Wol Euler: all right, I'll give you an introduction to the group in IM

     

    Eliza Madrigal: Thank you Wol

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: oki

     

    Eliza Madrigal: Hi Dao :))

     

    Dao Yheng: Hi Eliza, Yaku, and all :)

     

    Eden Haiku: Like Eliza's giggling in sound, wonderful!

     

    Yakuzza Lethecus: hey dao

     

    Zen Arado: Hi Dao :)

     

    Eliza Madrigal: We just finished a voice session and are now switching gears...

     

    Eliza Madrigal: hah Eden :) ::blushes:::

     

    Dao Yheng: ah -- great!

     

    Fox Monacular: :)

     

    Eliza Madrigal: Voice is very different though, I enjoy it too, even though I was *very* reluctant to use it at first

     

    Eden Haiku: You were?

     

    Eliza Madrigal: yes... felt more shy in voice

     

    Fael Innovia: the thing about voice I don't like so much, I find, is that it ties you down to the seat in front of computer much more :)

     

    Eliza Madrigal: that's true

     

    Eden Haiku: Ah ah...

     

    Eliza Madrigal: if someone says something to you, they'll know if you're not there just by speed of response :)

     

    Qt Core: a good wireless headset helps ;-)

     

    Fael Innovia: maybe I'll try getting a bluetooth hands free device and set it up for use for voice :)

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Gee, I should like it even more Fael I

     

    Zen Arado: good idea

     

    Eden Haiku: Regrets not buying a wireless headset...

     

    Eliza Madrigal: as long as we're not having webcam sessions any time soon...

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Being present in a meeting is important to the result

     

    Zen Arado: I was thinking of connecting a laptop to my TV

     

    Yakuzza Lethecus: but bluetooth often got really poor audio quality often

     

    Qt Core: using the ones for cellphones is quite cheaper than music headset

     

    Yakuzza Lethecus: at least from the microphone

     

    Eden Haiku: I did put lipstick on before the voice session :)

     

    Wol Euler: heheheheh

     

    Qt Core: brb

     

    Dao Yheng: :))

     

    Fox Monacular: hehe

     

    Eliza Madrigal laughs

     

    Eliza Madrigal: so French...

     

    Eden Haiku: ;-) I'm from Alpha de Centaurus dear....

     

    Zen Arado: think Skype allows conference calls now

     

    Eden Haiku: It does.

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Don't tell that to Sarah Palin, Eden

     

    Fox Monacular: really, with video?

     

    Eden Haiku: :-))

     

    Zen Arado: think so

     

    Eliza Madrigal: oh goodness... Well, y'all have fun with that one :)

     

    Fox Monacular: i was waiting for it!

     

    Zen Arado: they will start to charge for it too

     

    Fox Monacular: oh no

     

    Eliza Madrigal: although, might be fun to see everyone in pajamas with coffee cups...

     

    Fox Monacular: i use skype as a home phone, it's really cheap!

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Taking off headphones and mike

     

    Fox Monacular: i'm in a pajamas and with a tea cup!

     

    Eliza Madrigal: !!

     

    Eliza Madrigal grins

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Even tho the box says I am an "active speaker"

     

    Eden Haiku: Would love to see this pyjama party!

     

    Fael Innovia: oh and of course, can't listen to background music if I'm participating in voice discussion :D

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Ha!

     

    Fox Monacular: yay! pajama conference video party

     

    Fox Monacular: with 9 sec breaks

     

    Eden Haiku: With our pets and babies on our laps!

     

    Eden Haiku: With 9 secs breaks!

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Shuh, Nimbus is asleep........

     

    Fox Monacular: yes, trying not to *drop* the babies

     

    Eden Haiku: laughs

     

    Eliza Madrigal loves to hear Bleu's dog barking in the background

     

    Eliza Madrigal: they must be enormous :)

     

    Eden Haiku: Yes, she has a Bernese Spaniel, they are huge dogs!

     

    Eden Haiku: No Spaniel, Bouvier...

     

    Archmage Atlantis: No, just loud.......living with a cat that thinks you can understand him has it's downside

     

    Eliza Madrigal: haha Arch :)

     

    Eden Haiku: Hello Darren ;)

     

    Eliza Madrigal: Hi Darren :)

     

    Yakuzza Lethecus: hey darren :)

    Fael Innovia: stop

     

    Wol Euler: did you see the buttflap too? :)

     

    Eliza Madrigal: Do you have bunny ears too, Wol?

     

    Wol Euler: sadly, no

     

    Wol Euler: it does have a teddy bear though

     

    Eliza Madrigal giggles.... seeing now ;-)

    Wol Euler: hello bleu

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Funny tho, I could hear the onigatto music......but no voice before

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Or now either

     

    Zen Arado: Hi Bleu :)

     

    Bleu Oleander: wow Eden ..... cool

     

    Yakuzza Lethecus: hey bleu :)

     

    Eden Haiku: Hi Bleu :)

     

    Wol Euler: Arch, do you use a Mac?

     

    Fox Monacular: wow eden, quite a look!

     

    Eden Haiku: Still looking for a face I like though Bleu :)

     

    Archmage Atlantis: I was in Finance, guess.......no a PC

     

    Bleu Oleander: you'll find one :)

     

    Eden Haiku: Yes, Bleu taught me how to do it...:)

     

    Wol Euler: hmmmm

     

    Calvino Rabeni: Wow, Wol, you look unusually cuddly today :)

     

    Fox Monacular: very cool

     

    Wol Euler: ty :)

     

    Eliza Madrigal: :)

     

    Dao Yheng: I've noticed that if I hear ambient sound but no voice, I have to relog

     

    Wol Euler: we were talking about a pyjama party earlier

     

    Eden Haiku: I uploaded a drawing I did with Brushes on IPad and I'm wearing it as a skin...

     

    Eliza Madrigal: these are the only pajamas I have.... don't exactly look like pajamas though

     

    Zen Arado: great Eden

     

    Fox Monacular: I should try taht too

    Wol Euler: tehy look like terrycloth, warm and flannely

     

    Archmage Atlantis: The only pjs I have are not presentable in public......and there isn't a lot of them anyway

     

    Eliza Madrigal: :) Oh... well adding that description yes more pajama-y

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Would have to be a berobed party

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Haiku PJs, a new art form

     

    Wol Euler: mmmmm

    Darren Islar: and I haven't been moving

     

    Dao Yheng: I wonder how many simultaneous onigokkos have been attempted in SL?

     

    Wol Euler grins

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Those comments are trying to bring out the naughty in me........down boy

     

    Zen Arado: will be in Guinness book of records ?

     

    Dao Yheng: :))

     

    arabella Ella: seems to be a Friday night tradition :)

     

    arabella Ella: (night for those of us in europe)

     

    Wol Euler nods

     

    Wol Euler: it is traditionally the silly session

     

    arabella Ella: summer or friday night Wol?

     

    Wol Euler: friday night

     

    Qt Core: speaking in sl terms it is friday, 13:00

     

    arabella Ella nods

     

    arabella Ella: but not for us Qt it isnt

     

    Qt Core: but omitting the :00 ;-)

     

    arabella Ella: ah interesting observation Qt

     

    arabella Ella: lucky for some

     

    --BELL--

     

    Qt Core: unlucky of simply terrorozing for others

     

    arabella Ella: Well i remember onigokko from my very first visit here at PaB

     

    arabella Ella: Moon was guardian i remember

     

    arabella Ella: and Pema tried to apologise as he did not know how i would react :)

     

    arabella Ella: memories return just like it were yesterday

     

    Fael Innovia giggles.

     

    Archmage Atlantis: I have onigokko 4x in my inventory, but have no idea how to make it go when everyone else dances

     

    Fael Innovia: it needs to be worn

     

    Zen Arado: was Moon the onigoko originator?

     

    Wol Euler: just wear it

     

    Fael Innovia: then it'll automatically have you go with others

     

    Fael Innovia: as long as it's worn

     

    Bleu Oleander: sry ... need to go ... bye all :)

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Hmmm

     

    Fael Innovia: have fun Bleu :)

     

    Wol Euler: bye bleu, take care

     

    Yakuzza Lethecus: take care bleu

     

    Zen Arado: bye Bleu

     

    Qt Core: bye Bleu

     

    arabella Ella: i am not sure but it could have been started by Moon as he had a lovely sense of humour and mischieviousness

     

    arabella Ella: he used to get flowers to grow all over the place here too and he would also let off fireworks

     

    Zen Arado: and still has :)

     

    Archmage Atlantis: He still does at Zazen

     

    arabella Ella nods but have not seen him in ages now

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: time is a human invention

     

    Fael Innovia: Moon still has a guardian session.

     

    Fael Innovia: Sunday, 1am

     

    Darren Islar: sorry I have another arrent

     

    arabella Ella: ah ... not a very convenient time for me

     

    Fael Innovia: have fun Darren :)

     

    arabella Ella: bye Darren

     

    Zen Arado: bye Darren

     

    Dao Yheng: bye Darren!

     

    Darren Islar: bye all :)

     

    Wol Euler: bye darren, take care

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Blessings and Namaste, Darren

     

    Qt Core: bye Darren

     

    Zen Arado: wonder what an 'arrent' is

     

    Archmage Atlantis: errand, I assume

     

    arabella Ella: an errand?

     

    Wol Euler: or event

     

    Zen Arado: ah ok

     

    Wol Euler: errand is more likely, yes

     

    Calvino Rabeni: A "graceful" thing happened today - there is a path through forest near my house - to a greenway trail - and today, someone had spread it with rose petals - a rose path through the wood - unusual

     

    Wol Euler: oooh

     

    Wol Euler: a wedding party, perhaps?

     

    arabella Ella: how pretty

     

    Zen Arado: nice

     

    Fael Innovia: nice :)

     

    arabella Ella: i can nearly smell the scent of the petals

     

    Calvino Rabeni: no, i think, some magic

     

    Archmage Atlantis: shifts angle so as not to be looking at Wol's pj opening

     

    Wol Euler: heheheh

     

    Calvino Rabeni: I guess, created by a nearby house owner

     

    arabella Ella: elves and fairies in the woods

     

    Calvino Rabeni: to create some effect on people crossing there

     

    arabella Ella: definitely magic

     

    Archmage Atlantis: As Archmage, I can definitely say magic is overrated *g*

     

    Dao Yheng: It changes the mood -- in new york, the "imagine" circle in central park always has flowers on it -- I've come to rely on that :)

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Magic arises from what is in us......it does not happen to us

     

    arabella Ella: but why not let us dream on Arch?

     

    Calvino Rabeni: It is a dream communication

     

    arabella Ella nods

     

    Archmage Atlantis: The Bard , the night in midsummer, surely

     

    Calvino Rabeni: of an objective nature I would possibly add

     

    Dao Yheng: Thanks for the onnigoko -- bye all!

     

    Wol Euler: bye dao

     

    arabella Ella: bye Dao

     

    Qt Core: bye Dao

     

    Zen Arado: bye Dao

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: seeya dao

     

    Fael Innovia: have fun Dao :)

     

    Zen Arado: I have to go too

     

    Zen Arado: bye all

     

    Wol Euler: 'night zen, take care

     

    arabella Ella: bye Zen

     

    Calvino Rabeni: loooool Stargate!

     

    Yakuzza Lethecus: bye zen

     

    --BELL--

     

    Calvino Rabeni: bye

     

    Archmage Atlantis: domo arigato

     

    Wol Euler: was anyone at the 7am theme session on Time?

     

    arabella Ella: no afraid not

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: no, but i think time is an interesting subjet

     

    arabella Ella: nice quick change of attire Wol :)

     

    Wol Euler: :)

     

    Wol Euler: I couldn't let poor Arch suffer like that

     

    arabella Ella giggles

     

    Archmage Atlantis: I wasn't suffering

     

    Archmage Atlantis: I was just distracted

     

    Wol Euler: ah :)

     

    arabella Ella: no conscience issues Arch?

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Concious? no.......Conscience? no.........just distracted

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: talkin about time, what timezone you guys in

     

    Wol Euler: CEET

     

    Wol Euler: -E

     

    Archmage Atlantis: US EDT

     

    Qt Core: CET (DST)

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: im in GMT

     

    Fael Innovia: SLT+10

     

    Archmage Atlantis: I like that Fael

     

    arabella Ella: CET (SL + 9)

     

    Archmage Atlantis: SLT + 3

     

    arabella Ella: are you English Maverick?

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: yes but dont live in the uk

     

    arabella Ella: ah ok

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: were closer to france

     

    Archmage Atlantis: One assumes he lives England......bad assumption......where else does GMT apply

     

    arabella Ella: and will you reveal where that may be?

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: Channel Islands

     

    arabella Ella: ah ha :)

     

    Wol Euler: ah

     

    Wol Euler frowns. And they are not part of hte UK?

     

    Wol Euler: are they self-administering?

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Another assumption....busted

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: yes we are

     

    Wol Euler: well I never.

     

    arabella Ella: Arch please note I did not assume and asked whether he was English

     

    Archmage Atlantis: I did not mean you arabella, I meant me

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: we have american cruiseliners docka at our port almost every day

     

    arabella Ella: :)

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Are americans still considered rude?

     

    Archmage Atlantis: (sorry, 1950s movies)

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: no, far from it, i love america and what it offers

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Except the rest of the americas prefer we not refer to ourselves as americans

     

    arabella Ella: do you think one can generalise for all the population of the USA Arch?

     

    Fael Innovia: let's see... UK, Spain, Algeria, Mali, Burkina Faso, Ghana ... that's about it for the choices that can be seen on google maps on high zoom

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: have a freind just moved to atlanta from the channel islands

     

    arabella Ella: Portugal too perhaps Fael?

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Hot Lanta........hope the friend enjoys the blend

     

    Fael Innovia: maybe

     

    Fael Innovia: but... channel islands... GMT?

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: the island is called Guernsey

     

    --BELL--

     

    Wol Euler: Portugal is on English time too, 1 hour behind the rest of EUrope

     

    Fael Innovia: ah

     

    Fael Innovia: yes, found it

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Is that the island where tropical plants will grow?

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: its warm but no tropical plants here

     

    arabella Ella: from Wikipedia

     

    arabella Ella: They include two separate bailiwicks: the Bailiwick of Guernsey and the Bailiwick of Jersey, neither of which is part of the United Kingdom; rather they are considered the remnants of the Duchy of Normandy

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Altitude is sometimes more important than latitude and longitude with plants

     

    Fael Innovia: oh, spain is not GMT

     

    Fael Innovia: but portugal is

     

    Wol Euler nods

     

    Fael Innovia: as well as iceland

     

    arabella Ella: wow

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: we have a lot of french names in the island

     

    arabella Ella: what is the main attraction for the cruise liner tourists?

     

    Fael Innovia: Algeria is not GMT either

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: no vat goods

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: and the food

     

    arabella Ella: but island goods are never cheap

     

    Archmage Atlantis: That's like Florida, we are the same time zone as NYC, but everything is about an hour later here (sum wise)

     

    arabella Ella: due to extra freight and smaller markets

     

    Archmage Atlantis: *sun

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: ah florida, our fav destination

     

    arabella Ella: and food?

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: sea food is a speciality

     

    Fael Innovia: Morocco and Mauritania, Senegal, Guinea, Mali, Burkina Faso, Ghana, Togo and all the other little countries near them are also GMT

     

    Fael Innovia: and georgetown

     

    Fael Innovia: this is much more messy than I thought :)

     

    arabella Ella: great research Fael and very interesting :)

     

    Fael Innovia: ... and I don't want to even try to make sense out of that zigzag in asia

     

    Archmage Atlantis: People who do not live by the sea, never quite understand what real seafood is about

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Though ours is being destroyed by oil

     

    Wol Euler: indeed.

     

    Fael Innovia: Finland looks to be the only scandinavian country that's on eastern european time. The rest are CET

     

    Wol Euler: though I note that the oil industry is continuing to press for offshore drilling to be liberalized

     

    Wol Euler mutters "Drown the fuckers in their own crude oil, I say."

     

    arabella Ella: oh there is so much lobbying there and so many vested interests too

     

    Fael Innovia: I saw one positive aspect of the oil spill recently :)

     

    Wol Euler: mmm?

     

    Fael Innovia: US Coast Guard is asking for help publicly, from anyone willing and able to help with technology or techniques for handling the situation

     

    Fael Innovia: it's quite something to see established governmental institution to do that

     

    Fael Innovia: on something of this importance

     

    arabella Ella: yes i read about one of the responses today

     

    Archmage Atlantis: I won't start.....(pls help me not to start).......We watch the movement of the oil and methane daily......

     

    arabella Ella: by an NGO but cant remember details

     

    Archmage Atlantis: It is larger than most European countries in it's spread

     

    Wol Euler nods

     

    Wol Euler: and no end in sight.

     

    Archmage Atlantis: No, another legacy of the last administration

     

    Wol Euler: the Republicans must be so happy to be out of office, letting Obama get the blame for their greed and incompetence

     

    Fael Innovia: meep! wb Cal :)

     

    Wol Euler looks around curiously.

     

    Yakuzza Lethecus smiles back

     

    Wol Euler: ah :)

     

    --BELL--

     

    arabella Ella: gtg good night all

     

    Wol Euler: 'night ara, take care

     

    Fael Innovia: Good night Ara :)

     

    Qt Core: 'night Ara

     

    Fael Innovia: I found a nice feature in Emerald's radar today. doubleclicking on a name will move your camera right to them :)

     

    Wol Euler: ooooh

     

    Wol Euler: indeed. wow.

     

    Calvino Rabeni: brb

     

    Fael Innovia: wb Cal :)

     

    Wol Euler: wb al

     

    Wol Euler: cal

     

    Calvino Rabeni: ty

     

    Calvino Rabeni: Wol, would it be possible to write a SL script that would deliver pizza and beer to the nearest RL door?

     

    Wol Euler: heheheh

     

    Wol Euler: actually, yes, it would.

     

    Wol Euler: using the web-on-a-prim features of Viewer 2

     

    Wol Euler: you could order your RL pizza from within SL

     

    Wol Euler: it would work right now in v1 actually, if you went to the bother of scripting it. You could send a RL e-mail from SL

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Papa Wol's Pizza Delivery, franchised worldwide with outlets on the major solar planets *g*

     

    Wol Euler: :)

     

    Wol Euler: No Major Credit Cards Accepted - Linden$ olny

     

    Calvino Rabeni: Oh, and how about a chat prefix for "off the record"

     

    Calvino Rabeni: as in

     

    Calvino Rabeni: /offtherecord that is just sooo good an idea

     

    Wol Euler: :)

     

    Wol Euler: hello kodo, have you been here before?

     

    Yakuzza Lethecus is taking a pizza as well :)

     

    Yakuzza Lethecus: tonno pls

     

    Kodo Islay: im a friend of zen arado, not been to a meeting before

     

    Archmage Atlantis: Gotta go vote, later kids :)

     

    Qt Core: just had one, with salmon

     

    Wol Euler: bye arch, vote well

     

    Wol Euler: Kodo, so you know about the group, and that we record and publish these sessions?

     

    Kodo Islay: i was here last time i logged in and i just ended up here when i logged in

     

    Wol Euler: does that mean "yes"? :)

     

    Kodo Islay: :)

     

    Wol Euler: it's a serious question, the LL Terms of Service require us to ask permission.

     

    Wol Euler: sorry to be picky

     

    Yakuzza Lethecus: gute nacht

     

    Wol Euler: bye yaku

     

    --BELL--

     

    Qt Core: sleeptime for me too

     

    Fael Innovia: Goodnight Qt :)

     

    Wol Euler: bye qt, sleep well

     

    Qt Core: bye all have fun

     

    Wol Euler: cal and maverick are already there, it seems

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: lol, just watched the IT Crowd on tv

     

    Wol Euler: yaku, best remove Kodo from the log since he did not give permission.

     

    Calvino Rabeni: Calvino Rabeni returns from the RL kitchen to the SL pool

     

    Wol Euler: bon appetit

     

    Fael Innovia: meep! pool! :)

     

    Wol Euler: heheheh

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: im slipping off for a bit laters all

     

    Wol Euler: bye maverick, take care

     

    Maverick42 Rosca: u too

     

    Fael Innovia: have fun Maverick :)

     

    Fael Innovia: not a very deep pool, this :)

    PaB-2010-06-26-1300.jpg

    Calvino Rabeni: Well it is deep, but we get stuck on ther surfaces of things here

     

    Wol Euler: just like in life ...

     

    Fael Innovia smiles.

     

    Wol Euler: I wonder what would happen if you were to sit on an underground object (by camming below the surface) and then stand up?

     

    Wol Euler: would you fall forever?

     

    Fael Innovia: that's something to try out :)

     

    Wol Euler: with a disposable alt.

     

    Fael Innovia: meep?

     

    Fael Innovia: am not disposable :P

     

    Calvino Rabeni: Alts have fallen off the edge of the world I heard

     

    Wol Euler: no way that I would risk "Wol" on that experiemnt

     

    Wol Euler: I wasn't suggesting that you were :)

     

    Fael Innovia: but... hard to think you'd get stuck there... not with teleport home being there.

     

    Wol Euler: true

     

    Calvino Rabeni: Reminds me of a story from the 60's - two beatnicks were sitting on the deck of a ship in the middle of the ocean. "Wow, man, look at all that water out there!" The other looked for a long time and then replied - "Yes! And that's only the surface of it!"

     

    Wol Euler: :)

     

    Fael Innovia: hmm... can't get a prim go lower than just so deep that it's all hidden

     

    Wol Euler: no, you have to do it via the coordinates

     

    Wol Euler: you can't move it down by hand

     

    Wol Euler: AFAIK

     

    Fael Innovia: ah, resizing did it

     

    Fael Innovia: nope, coordinates don't do it either

     

    Fael Innovia: can't sit on the prim underground

     

    Wol Euler: heh

     

    Fael Innovia: and can't resize it sitting on it

     

    Wol Euler: clearly they already thought of this problem :)

     

    Fael Innovia: that leaves scripts... perhaps blocked as well :)

     

    Calvino Rabeni: The thing I regret about it is, you can't excavate under the ground surface

     

    Wol Euler: true

     

    Wol Euler: no basements

     

    Calvino Rabeni: A couple of days ago I was in a bookstore, there was an article about extreem spelunking

     

    Fael Innovia: what's that?

     

    Calvino Rabeni: a couple of adventurer scientists are obsessed with it - exploring caves

     

    Calvino Rabeni: the deepest caves on earth have not been explored yet

     

    Calvino Rabeni: they have gone 2 miles down from the surface, and many miles from that point underground

     

    Calvino Rabeni: in expeditions that take more than a month

     

    Wol Euler: wow

     

    Calvino Rabeni: but hav not reached the "deepest" or farthest

     

    Calvino Rabeni: very dangerous, also a scientific frontier not explored

     

    --BELL--

     

    Calvino Rabeni: Such surface dwellers, we are :)

     

    Wol Euler: yep

     

    Wol Euler is uncomfortable in some subway stations :)

     

    Calvino Rabeni: There are some quite deep ones

     

    Fael Innovia: wow

     

    Fael Innovia: they definitely aren't afraid of cramped places.

     

    Calvino Rabeni: Certain forms of insanity are recognized as risks for that profession

     

    Wol Euler: heh

     

    Calvino Rabeni: Rapture of isolation or something

     

    Wol Euler: well, spending a month or more underground would change something.

     

    Calvino Rabeni: As in, they forget wanting to return to the land of the living

     

    Wol Euler: huh

     

    Calvino Rabeni: more extreme I suppose than those long all-dark meditation retreats

     

    Fael Innovia: :)

     

    Fael Innovia: much more extreme

     

    Wol Euler: really.

     

    Calvino Rabeni: FYI -- http://www.amazon.com/Blind-Descent-.../dp/1400067677

     

    Wol Euler: I don't think I can even read taht book. I have far too vivid an imagination, and too great a horror, of being stuck underground for that.

     

    Calvino Rabeni: Hmmm, yesterday, Zen said - wheelchairs and escalators are not a good combination - see this on Youtube

     

    Ewan Bonham: Hello

     

    Calvino Rabeni: I could not click thereon :)

     

    Wol Euler: hello ewan, nice to see you again

     

    Calvino Rabeni: Hi Ewan

     

    Wol Euler closes the Amazon window and shudders.

     

    Wol Euler: Not for me.

     

    Fael Innovia: best left for unmanned and remote controlled robots to do, that :)

     

    Wol Euler: indeed

     

    --BELL--

     

    Fael Innovia: meep! :)

     

    Wol Euler: [14:59] Calvino Rabeni: http://www.buzzfeed.com/lenkendall/t...and-chrome-wh6

     

    Wol Euler: let your mad inner child geek have some fun

     

    Fael Innovia: hmm... it's saying flash not found

     

    Calvino Rabeni: That is part of a whole tv ad compaign for Chrome, clearly aimed at techie office culture

     

    Wol Euler: yeah

     

    Wol Euler: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_oarM...layer_embedded

     

    Wol Euler: tghat might wortk

     

    Calvino Rabeni: Well, try googling "chrome google potato gun" for various links

     

    Fael Innovia: funny :)

     

    Wol Euler: indeed

     

    Wol Euler: I'm not sure whether it's meajnt to make me use their browser, or want to work there.

     

    Fael Innovia: maybe both :D

     

    Calvino Rabeni: both

     

    Wol Euler: :)

     

    Calvino Rabeni: Sorry, GTG, thanks for the hangout

     

    Wol Euler: bye cal, enjoy the day

     

    Fael Innovia: have fun Cal :)

     

    Fael Innovia: oh, he's going fast today

     

    Fael Innovia: join me in the fountain? it's cool and refreshing :)

     

    --BELL--

     

    Fael Innovia: emerald forced ground sit is fun :)

     

    Wol Euler: remind me how it goes?

     

    Fael Innovia: ctrl-alt-s

     

    Fael Innovia: I like that pose :)

     

    Fael Innovia: it's animated :)

     

    Fael Innovia: meep! :)

     

    Wol Euler: meep

     

    Wol Euler: sorry

     

    Fael Innovia took snapshotties.

     

    Wol Euler: in IM with Aurel

     

    --BELL--

     

    Fael Innovia: L$ to $ ratio appears to have stabilized at around 270L$ per $

     

    Fael Innovia: from 260

     

    Wol Euler nods

     

    Wol Euler: are you buying enormous quantities?

     

    Fael Innovia: nope

     

    Wol Euler smiles

     

    Fael Innovia: just curiously looking at the data again now that some time has passe

     

    Fael Innovia: +d

     

    Fael Innovia: but the volume of transactions is clearly a bit lower than it used to be

     

    Wol Euler: mmhmm

     

    Wol Euler: Sl economy is slowing down too, behind RL but the same

     

    Fael Innovia: well, that too but I think it's more related to the PR stuff floating about.

     

    Fael Innovia: and resident's reaction to it

     

    Fael Innovia: of course, I'm curious to see in a few days if Philip Linden's return to CEO chair makes a difference in the economy :)

     

    Wol Euler: yep

     

    Fael Innovia: I found it quite positive news :)

     

    Wol Euler: absolutely

     

    Fael Innovia: eek, long email chain on pab google group

     

    Wol Euler: logging?=

     

    Fael Innovia: yep

     

    Wol Euler: I'm not sure why this is such a hot-button issue for some people

     

    Fael Innovia: it's scary to be out and in public :)

     

    Fael Innovia: but... exactly what kind of "in public" triggers fears differs for different people.

     

    Fael Innovia: logs like this are that for some.

     

    Wol Euler nods.

     

    --BELL--

     

    Fael Innovia: I have to say I'm kind of feeling like "does this _really_ need discussion?" about this talk about recording :)

     

    Wol Euler: yeah

     

    Wol Euler: I appreciate hte concern but there are at least three possible solutions in plae right now

     

    Fael Innovia: meep meep?

     

    Wol Euler: 1) stop the recorder

     

    Wol Euler: 2) leave it on but edit out hte personal bits

     

    Wol Euler: 3) go elsewhere

     

    Fael Innovia: ah yes, I remember using all of them at times :)

     

    Wol Euler: sure

     

    Fael Innovia: of course, those are all so called "temporary" ones :)

     

    Wol Euler: and the problem with that is?

     

    Fael Innovia: I suppose the question that needs asking is not if we should record or not but what can we do to not exclude people who don't like recording

     

    Wol Euler: isn't that like going to a restaurant and then objecting to them serving food?

     

    Fael Innovia: not exactly :)

     

    Wol Euler: but you know what I mean

     

    Fael Innovia: more like objecting to the restaurant presenting on their website the name of each customer and what they ate :)

     

    Wol Euler: ok

     

    Wol Euler: so the point is the same

     

    Wol Euler: given that you know that they will do so, eihter you go or you stay away

     

    Wol Euler: in RL

     

    Wol Euler: right?

     

    Fael Innovia: Yep :)

     

    Wol Euler: and SL is different because?

     

    Fael Innovia: is not :)

     

    Wol Euler: right

     

    Wol Euler: so the problem is solved

     

    Fael Innovia: but still, like I'd not be on SL if I'd had to pay to get in, some of the people with trouble about the recording might get over it and actually consent to it but only if they can participate somehow without it first.

     

    Wol Euler: maybe

     

    --BELL--

     

    Wol Euler: do we care?

     

    Fael Innovia: some would get over it and obviously, at least some of us care :)

     

    Wol Euler: yes, I'm playing Devil's Advocate.

     

    Fael Innovia: I think most likely those who had reservations about the recording at first but are now happy they didn't leave because of them.

     

    Wol Euler: so we give up recording four sessions per week, different times of different days

     

    Wol Euler: so that anyone who might possibly want to join *if* they could sit and speak wihtout being recorded, can do so

     

    Wol Euler: is that the idea?

     

    Fael Innovia: I'd prefer additional sessions instead of dropping the ones we have myself.

     

    Fael Innovia: rather like Yakuzza's voice hour

     

    Wol Euler: agreed, I find that a better idea.

     

    Fael Innovia: I've only been to one voice hour so far but I get the impression the text meetings are more likely to be more meaningful, somehow.

     

    Wol Euler smiles and nods

     

    Wol Euler: I should go to bed

     

    Wol Euler: goodngiht fael, take care.

     

    Fael Innovia: Good night Wol :)

     

    Fael Innovia: Sleep well :)

     

    Wol Euler: ty, you too

     

    Fael Innovia: meep meep! :)

     

    Wol Euler: meep meep!

     

    Fael Innovia waves happily.
