No, he doesn't want to set up an assembly line in his garage
to make 100 more of 'em.

:)OK. NEXT Saturday it's booked for. It seems to be running better anyhow as
I said.
Last night's fiasco has been escalated to the team leader of the tech. They
are supposed to let you know when they can't make it or are late. He didn't.
Anyhow, it will be fixed, and should be free.
Cheers,
Kim.Nonsense. I don't use my skills in any one area to try to convince anyone
of my knowledge in any other. I'm a very good IT guy, a decent amateur historian,
and fairly widely read. However, I don't expect that because I know my way
around the XP registry that anyone should take my opinions about anything
else seriously. They're welcome to take it or leave it. Artists are explicitly
or implicitly (usually explicitly) claiming that their status as an artist
allows them some greater degree of insight into the world than the rest of
us. They might even have that, insight into the world or the self. But politics,
current events, environmental damage, and so forth have precious little to
do with acting or playing guitar.
I tend to take seriously people who have unique or at least unusual backgrounds
that give them additional gravitas when covering a particular subject. Tim
Robbins to me has borderline zero gravitas, I happen to agree with a good
bit of what he says but I don't take his opinion all that seriously.
In addition, most of what I talk about regarding US history, system architecture,
and so forth can be checked against quality records as matters of fact. The
god stuff not so much, although I think we're getting closer and closer to
that all the time.
Finally, in my personal experience 'artists,' particularly actors and musicians,
tend not to be terribly well informed people. It's rare that I get anything
out of them but pretty vanilla American leftism. Writers are often, though
certainly not always, another breed. I mean, I rem
