| 18:03.59 | zachary | no 2nd, first was daughter 1 1/2 yo. |
| 18:04.07 | Cope | Cool. |
| 18:04.12 | Jenson | i wandered in the library for no reason today, came out with: Niestchze, a massive UNIX guide a Adobe Illustrator guide and an Access guide |

| 18:23.43 | Leeds | Cope: snort speaks now? |
| 18:25.05 | Cope | Hey xiaoqi. |
| 18:25.36 | Cope | Leeds: Do you know much about Kabbalah? |
| 18:25.44 | Leeds | Cope: no, very little |
| 18:25.48 | Leeds | why do you ask? |
| 18:26.38 | Cope | Nor I - Sophie just asked me about it... apparently its quite trendy now - Madonna and Demi Moore being the latest followers. |
| 18:27.33 | Cope | I think the rise in Scientology, Angelology, Kabbalism etc is very interesting - 'spirituallity' is very cool, it would appear. |
| 18:27.53 | Leeds | most of that stuff has very little to do with true kabbalah AFAIK |
| 18:28.11 | Leeds | it's very much a populist cult based on some of the ideas |
| 18:28.16 | Cope | kabbalah as in 'that which has been received'? |
| 18:28.23 | Leeds | yes |
| 18:30.05 | Cope | I thought modern Kabbalism was distinctly influenced by numerology. |
| 18:30.50 | Leeds | there is some strange numerology stuff, yes |
| 18:32.01 | Cope | Very strange. |

| 19:30.08 | Leeds | uh-oh |
| 19:30.33 | Xiaoqi | hihi |
| 19:30.44 | Cope | I've been asked by my boss to make an internal BBS system; for people to post news and useful information - kind of a forum and searchable resource too. |
| 19:31.15 | Leeds | plenty of php boards around |
| 19:31.19 | Cope | I wondered how tricky this would be, and how much time to say I will need... obviously only guidelines. |
| 19:31.42 | Leeds | a couple of hours? |
| 19:31.55 | Cope | Maybe I could host it myself? |
| 19:31.57 | Leeds | (assuming you have a machine with PHP running) |
| 19:32.03 | Cope | Well this is the issue. |
| 19:32.22 | Leeds | a couple more hours to setup the machine |
| 19:32.45 | Cope | There's a spare machine kicking around. |
| 19:32.48 | Leeds | alternatively, a slash/scoop/nuke/etc. thing could work |
| 19:33.08 | Cope | But I imagine they expect me to put it on the mail server, |
| 19:33.46 | Cope | But thats an oldish redhat machine, old libraries etc.... could be a pain installing new software, since the machine's been unadministered for abour 2 years. |
| 19:33.47 | Leeds | whj |
| 19:33.51 | Leeds | why? |
| 19:33.55 | Leeds | argh |
| 19:34.25 | Leeds | tell your boss that? |
| 19:34.59 | Cope | Tell him what... that it should be a priority? |
| 19:35.31 | Leeds | no - that the mail server isn't a suitable machine for adding new, up-to-date software |
| 19:35.49 | Cope | Oh, yeah, that's fine. |
| 19:36.29 | Cope | He will probably say its ok to use my old machine. |
| 19:39.35 | Cope | So then install apache and php and add some sort of php board? |
