Hello There

It's Overloading the Machine as in, the washing machine, primarily. The name comes from the laundromat next door. They have very large signs on each machine which say, in all-caps, "DO NOT OVERLOAD THE MACHINE". All in all, there are at least twenty of these signs posted.

Both at the laundromat and at home, I regularly overload the machine, leading to unpredictable results.

I work for the Free Software Foundation and the GNU Project, but this is my web page, not theirs.

I've added a Calendar to keep a running list of upcoming events that I think look interesting, and a Reading Queue to keep track of all the things I want to read.

I build this site using Emacs, and Muse.

I've just noticed that it looks horrible in Internet Explorer. Oops. Firefox is what you should be using anyway.

I'm in the process of restructuring/coding some things, so perpetually sorry for the mess.


Grief can take care of itself; but to get the full value of a joy you must have somebody to divide it with.
