Dead December 9th, 2001 @ 2:15 am PST
Tragedy. My computer is dead. The power supply. This is a sad day. All is lost, lost. You probably won’t see anything new here for some time. No eMail either. There were several (dozen) awaiting replies, I know. Sorry. I’ll write as soon as I can. Crap.
RAM November 28th, 2001 @ 11:52 am PST

The account sits on line and people attempt to chat with it […]
AntiTrust May 29th, 2001 @ 2:19 pm PDT
I caught AntiTrust on the plane last week. I liked it, if for no other reason than it was probably the first movie I saw that didn’t have things like “EMAIL!” flashing on the monitor when someone received a message. It’s a pretty good “computer” movie. And Tim Robbins is an excellent actor, meat. Props […]

Computer-mad Generation Has a Memory Crash February 7th, 2001 @ 8:18 am PST
“It’s a type of brain dysfunction,” said Toshiyuki Sawaguchi, the university’s professor of neurobiology. “Young people today are becoming stupid.” And … in a completely unrelated story … Doctors amputate first human hand transplant: Hallam said for the first year, the right hand – which had belonged to a French motorcyclist killed in an accident […]
