Nah Californians are still tucked up in bed dreaming of meeting ET. At least another 4 hours before they start pulling out the plugs. |

If you mean't the sarcasm I detected and therebye invoke Murphy. I vote than when we do meet ET that you are the first in line to be probed :-) |

Nah Californians are still tucked up in bed dreaming of meeting ET. At least another 4 hours before they start pulling out the plugs. Actually, I believe they usually get into the lab at 8am Pacific Time, which is 1500 UTC or about 10 minutes ago. Then they take at least half an hour to do routine stuff before they start the outage.

Nah Californians are still tucked up in bed dreaming of meeting ET. At least another 4 hours before they start pulling out the plugs. Every now and then someone gets in early. I have see everything go down before 11:00 AM US Eastern time. SETI@home classic workunits: 93,865 CPU time: 863,447 hours Join the [url=http://tinyurl.com/8y46zvu]BP6/VP6 User Group[ |

Nah Californians are still tucked up in bed dreaming of meeting ET. At least another 4 hours before they start pulling out the plugs. A long time ago one of Matt's posts noted that Jeff is an early riser, so when Matt is out of town the Tuesday outages tend to start earlier. The first campus shuttle bus run arrives at the lab around 7:30 am. Joe |

Murphy's favourite law.... "If you perceive that there are four possible ways in which something can go wrong, and circumvent these, then a fifth way, unprepared for, will promptly develop. Corollary: It will be impossible to fix the fifth fault, without breaking the fix on one or more of the others". |

I vote than when we do meet ET that you are the first in line to be probed :-) I was referring to Lionel's comment :-) And seeing as the system went down only a few hours after he posted..... T.A. < I gave up trying to think of a appropriate comment about suitably probe proof underwear that wouldn't upset the Mods :D > |
