Important notice for PBW Users.

Sweet! Is it ready yet!

Seriously, can you strap a webcam on top of your head so we can all watch as you assemble it? We won't mind if you stop to watch a naughty video every now and then either!

Allright Bman. Some real news finally.

I am probably going to regret telling you all this, but I have received the server, and it's in one piece.

I am still going to need a couple days to get it set up in the new location, so don't plan on being able to use PBW before Monday night sometime. But you can rest assured it didn't get lost in the mail at least.

And I agree with Geo, Ohio is a nice enough place to live if you can deal with freakish weather. (Though it should be noted that the past decade has been especially freakish with the seasons getting all mishmashed...) It's just provincial and so rather difficult for 'visiting' types to stomach.

you want freekish weather, try out Calgary... they got 40 cm of snow like 4 days ago! Just try running a rodeo under those conditions

[QB]hy are you surprised at the regional chauvinism? Isn't it the same, or even worse, in Europe? At least here there are highway driving distances between the 'divisions' of the populace. In Britain, and even in the denser cities of the US, there are neighborhoods that have distinct identities and hate each other.

Baron, I think that you are wrong there - we dont have that level of cultural dimorphication in our cities - you have to remember for example that England is only about twice the size of California (it could be less actually), yet has about 3 times the population.

The dichotomy of our populations are not generally as pronounced as the US, and generally Europe is a lot more homogenous, even with the mutiple nations.

See if you can get some of the cool leading edge social anthropological films out at the moment from the nearest univeristy to you - I reccomend "Domov" (Czech for "home") by Rosei Read - excellent stuff that should give you a useful insight into the two main anthropological substrains in Europe

So, what's the url on that webcam, and is it up yet?

Also, Geo, could you setup an IRC channel, please, and monitor it closely? I'm thinking that as we watch you work on the webcam, we're going to want to offer you advice and suggestions...

Ohio? Isn't that where arguably the best modern music group hails from? I refer, of course, to 'Over the Rhine'.

Actually GT, it's not a bad place to live, but you wouldn't want to visit there.

Fair point Geo, that is probably a good thing you know.

I grew up in a picture perfect English village, you know, just like you see in the movies, white houses with black oak beams, thatched roofs, village green with 3 pubs off it, flint church, Kate Beckinsale running round in A line skirts - all that sort of thing.

Lovely place to grow up and live in during the week. During the summer however, bloody murder with all the wretched tourists coming in - horrible, truly horrible

Am I wrong or the server is up & running? The only problem is the enormous number of internal servlet errors generated...
Well, I suppose someone's working on it right now... three or four hours ago there were different errors...

[geoschmo]

Yes, it's hooked up, but no its not quite working right at the moment. Yes we are working on it. Once it's working we will give you an official "it's up" message here. In the mean time I don't recomend trying to access the site.
