Zulu Time Yet? . . . . . mar 11 2003 — amwalk54.dat

Christina at ElegantHack had a great examination of the driving experience the other day.

Seems she's been clocking some time in a bunch of little sports cars, but not enjoying the over-engineered expensivos as much as the classic buckets.

Got an email from BigWhiteGuy in Hong Kong, responding to my questions about a project they're trying to start called "soul of the web". Anything that encourages quality participation is a good thing, as we see it.

I read that our armed forces have 'moved to Zulu time' in anticipation of some serious work in Iraq. That's funny, I thought they operated on Zulu time ALL the time. Look out, Saddam, next week they'll REALLY be on Zulu time.
