I have no idea how to edit this and I don't use youtube because they use flash and I don't. What I was thinking on is a technology center but usually I don't use computers in the library. I did not know how crippled they are. But I found out a month ago when one of my computers went down and I went to the library and simply asked: Can I use one of your computers to burn a DVD with the latest verion of Debian Linux.
I was told the answer is no. Not only this: They told me they can't lend me a copy. I was pipped at the post before I started! We need to change this. I don't want kids to be pipped at the post. The expression BTW is likely australian and it is in a song by Buzz and the Blues band and the song is "That's my dog". She loves me every day but you don't. I have the CD because I met Buzz and was picking grapes with them. If we want to get a copyright then we will need to go talk to the band. But we do have rights to copy on Linux and OpenBSD and we certainly can do a technolgy section and Greg emailed me: Do I want to head this up? And I don't know the answer to this. I can do my part. But I can't do it all by myself. I can't go to the CUUG meeting this evening. I am still nursing an eye infection. I know what it is and I told the doctor (s) plural before I went: Staph. The golden staff. Non MRSA. I will do my part. When it is -20C we need a really good reason to get out of bed.
