    Happy New Year all. Good way to start the year by posting my first proper message on fsxNet. It might say "2022" on the calender, but it still seems like 1994 here.

    Hehe, definitely not 1994. Only takes seconds to toss mail and much less to download it! :D Definitely not 1994 technology there. :D

    It's the same lens though. What we SEE is still 1994. To a
    certain extent it's not bad; I like the way OpenXP looks and
    operates as a console program.

    Yeah, true, there is definitely a 1994 feel about pur spftware, even thogh there's some newer software and hardware technology under the hood. :)

    ah the number of times I've been asked that one, I think I should have been given some Lotto insights by the random number gods so I could answer it, but alas not.

    could answer it, but alas not.

    Ahh, its funny. I was just musing the number of times I've been asked that question - and everybody who has asked me it thinks it's funny (and it was the first time), but its a bit worn out now. (I work in a job, where I'm talking to folks on the other side of the dateline pretty much daily.)

    That said, I've always wondered, strained, given too much thought to a good response - but sadly, I'm not funny enough and never came up with something.. ;(

    That said, in my job where I talk with those on the other side of the planet, its generally "my" morning, which results in "their" late afternoon and often late evening the day before. So when I "sign off" from the conversation, I always sign off with "Take the rest of the day off."

    I also let them know, that if they want a meeting with me on "their" Friday, I'll often reschudule it to "my" Monday...
