h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

me being in school, with a maths exam this afternoon, I really should have gone to some revion site when I got this computer out... I got as far as the bbc.co.uk, then I decised to put /dna/h2g2..... ah well, can't huth that* much I suppose!

also someone has just mentianed badgers in a tree with a gun...... they get everywhere!

ok, yesterday I had my geog and science exams, and last week I did many wild days including a camp on an island last weekend! with flow, romillyu, her three girls, wupert (well, rupert) and pip!

so anyway baders aside, /i really should get on with watchamacallit, revisiuon...... ugh... maths....

Traveller in Time calculating badgers
"They even set foot in Jerusalem .

We should calculate the improbability of them beeing pilots . "

yes... we should... oooh! hang on! Its all 2legs fault! I must go and say this in that convo.

also, If you use brunel, do you like the purple page I have now?

Traveller in Time searching for a purple
"Actually I do not, I have background colours turned off on most systems . I will have a look on a colour screen.

Purple ? Nearly black !

Perhaps brown, with the yellow text in but it is hard to call it purple. Hmm, turning the brightness up, up and up. Ah, at 90% brigthness I see the borders going purple. Turning the brightness back quikly seems as if your page is going to blow my monitor.

Quik turn on Radio4?_ the secondary emission of the Quintessential phase is about to go on air! "

uh! It ISpurple... just a bit... dark.....

heard it! taped it!

Traveller in Time hard disk failure
" Have missed most of it, done a reboot four times but every few minutes the multi media system crashed.

Well, I still have the 'listen again' if I get my system running before the next episode. Perhaps on my brand new 'Winux' box ."

err, isnt that basically Lindows????? http://www.linspire.com/

Traveller in Time from 'AmdK6'
"Perhaps starnge but I give all my computer systems names. This one named partly after my sister in law and partly linux.

The operating system is (currently, as in temporary) Kernel 3. something and the environment (tools & window managers) build out of a Debian CD image and a SuSE CD set.

My Win98 system 'Flatbox' has severe registry problems and this system is connected through the very limited child proof router- filter.

Hmm, I could have a peek to the external site from 'Winux' ."

Traveller in Time looking at the hundreds of smilies above the textbox
@Now from 'Winux' strange, the double quotes turn into at-s hmm.
Indeed the lindows is not what I have on this system, just similar in that it uses the linux kernel and some selectde tools on top.

Well, I should not complaint about the static herd of smilies above I bet some of my 'GuideML' entries are worse. @

unusual OS you have there! why all the bits-and-pieces?

static??? they should be drifting to the left (from our perspective)

Traveller in Time from the shaking Internet Explorer
"That is because the scrolling smilies on top take some processing time.

And on the 'Winux' I run a very basic Netscape, so not marquee. "

ah! right, woo, netscpae, but I prefer my nice mozilla firefox!
