From the a little behind the times department: Anyone use Skype? What's your experience?
Will be down in New Orleans for a few days in April, ostensibly for Jazzfest, but with nutria bringing 5 bucks a tail it might be a good time to earn a little extra pocket money.

On a clear September day in 1776, smoke rose from lower Manhattan as the British advanced into the city. From his headquarters on the Morris-Jumel estate, Gen. George Washington may have paused in the shade of a young elm tree to take in the scene.
Today, that tree still stands in what is now Washington Heights, though at about 110 feet tall and almost six feet in diameter, it is doubtful that Washington would recognize it. Affectionately known by locals as "the dinosaur," this living witness to those events 230 years ago it is now one of 25 trees in New York City that will be preserved—through cloning.
I'm still trying to get my mind around yesterday's news that Exxon's 2007 profit of 40 billion dollars equates to 1,300 dollars a second.

While sitting at your desk lift your right foot off the ground and start making clockwise circles with it. Now raise your right hand in the air and draw the number 6. Your foot will switch to making counter clockwise circles.
Huh? Found here.

They hired Dr Larry Brilliant.....and what did he do in the past??
Dr for the Greatful Dead in the 60's/70's, worked for WHO in India on a successful smallpox-eradication programme, created Seva (with some help from the G Dead) helped 3M people to not go blind, CEO of two public firms, and was co-founder of The Well.
Looking forward to what they can do!!
Apparently the first NY State record for Scott’s Oriole, in Union Square Park 1/24/08. Seen as early as 12/4/07, it was initially reported as an Orchard Oriole, but when photos were posted online yesterday experts suggested Scott’s, a southwestern species. 100+ birders showed up today and the bird was pretty cooperative, frequenting the plantings adjacent to the statue of Gandhi. It was generally held to be a Scott’s, though some thought it too small, and the lack of white tail tips could be cage wear, indicating an escapee, but everyone hopes it’s a legitimate bird. A lot of online analysis is apt to ensue.
