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

Hi there,
Let me introduce myself ( again )
"My nick name is Traveller in Time (more not to be disclosed please..)
I am just another researcher over here, thet is I slowly get the inpression I am perhaps the only one researching anything I see.
Got an example for you ( A1079822 ) for the # anchor sub locator you searched. I have just stumbled into your pages and I guess You managed it by now anyway.

Must give you big credit for the Albatros site inside this Guide. It is one of the more consistent linked places to be, here in the Guide that is."
(< t i t > no spaces) Traveller in Time translating ( I play role games with myself to communicate multi threaded inside one thread )
"If they will encounter dolphins? I guess so." to Nick again"Will you see dolpphins too if you are searching for the last Albatros ?"
Nephew Who comming in looking in a worn out suitcase
"I am missing any nature landscapes in my collection. Can you photograph them too along with the birds?"

Thanks TiT42

I'm sure we'll see dolphins and some great landscapes too. I'll take photos I promise and share them on the site.

Nephew Who comes in carrying his Guide and searching for any sailors
"I some minor problems reading the names on your drawings of English Rose V1, about 3 pixels wide. An idea can you list wat is on the drawings, I will add then as Alt to the links on ( A1103509 ) use edit1103509 to see the GuideML source."

Traveller in Time on his head and a kit bag over his shoulder
"How about my duty, I guess by any reply I signed in to your fan club to virtually join the journey. Do you have the roster ready for sweaping the decks?"

Nephew Who comes in awake this time "Sorry that was not quite how I thought to say it. It should have been more like: 'Nice images. Small problem, about three pixels per character. I have an more or less nautical background, and know what it is ( in my own language) post a list of names as on the images and corrections, check my page ( A1103509 ) for an example' And now the test1103509 for a GuideML view, page just now updated." swimming over the ship "Enlish Rose V1 Communications What is the (expected) band width anyway? no supplyer or provider says anything. Serial cabling with data extension kit suggests below 64Kbit. Less then 64K double compress images (take "heavy" image compressor with you) Less then 28K8 Only communicate via Email as BBC servers are not always stable (mainly at lower speeds by browser timouts over rerequested IP packets) Less then 14K4 Should NOT use WORD EXCEL OR PP for data to be transmitted as these create files with more then 50% overhead of nonsense(= wasted time). Less then 9K6 You do have speach communication, do you? " Traveller in Time on his head start speaking to fish "Wish you where there last time Dict, have you seen the mess we used for language." addressing NamedNick " I have read the Brent Stephenson page (hmm, his image could be mine think of a two month beard) could link to his site <LINK HREF="http://www.birdingnz.co.nz/directory.htm" ALT="Off H2G2 site link"> Brent Stephenson web page </LINK> This would be, as far as I understand it, his site Use capitals for attributes DNA runs default on capitals. ( A ref as H2G2 or BIO creates capitalised and closed a link under name of page) Demo The ALT is not needed, though at least some like to know where we are heading. Why do these legs not have their own Personal Space?"

Voice from nowhere
"To increase current bandwidth efficiency there will be postings right when the information is to be disclosed"


<> looking up, scratching his head
"Hmm, seems we have to continue our monologue. Can you check out your GPS systems we can not find Ardmore on our map (not even on Johns popupmap on the internet)"

Nephew Who
"Hey, I know where they are we have been wind surfing in that area. 'The first dumbo to surf the Loch Ness' just did not reach the newspapers."

comes flying in

Nephew Who as usualy typing and reading on his portable console
"On page 'english rose.. ' you write about installed solar power panels
while John writes on page 'preparation.. ' he was out of money?
I guess four gps refers to four antennae."

Traveller in Time looking for
"Do you know somewhere to find a crash course 'english' sailing, as in my opinion stragbasher has quite a fair notion how it works but lacks some (a lot perhaps) sailing experience. He took the most complicated of all sailing vessels a tall-ship to learn and to explain sailing.
John is using downwind as a sailor instead of 'with the wind' for the landlubbers."

"Still dreaming of my Kite Catamaran, I guess forever. But perhaps you see me flying by some day."

Nephew Who appears from nowhere tapping on his console
"crazy bird site

Counter code has changed.
Please update your code.
Bravenet web services

NB the car tire rubber bands will have been worn out by the time you get back.

I prefer elastic woven nylon coated ends each apx one arm long (no real measure) eightknotted one side and a small looped knot (still searching for all kinds of names) These are available in nearly all sailing shops (from the reel)."

thanks for all this TiT>42 ... Sorry I've been slow in coming back - 2 days to go here so its a bit hectic - will try to fix up today.

so many good suggestions... so little time

Structure of this site:

Only the <./>italics</.> (also Sam as we know him) around here do work for the Guide

Everything around here has been made to stimulate writing

Most researchers are a one night stand

Apx 1000 more or less regulars
Apx 500 just only "slow chat"
Average 150 logged in 500..1000(?) just watching (lurking)

We research to compile the Guide, DNA U42 wrote some books about it
"
Slight hissing sound remains as The Voice silences...

Sailor in Time showing around his muscles by wearing short trousers and a T-shirt.
"So I guess I am hired? Well, lets see what we cans learn these landludders. Who made me a small book for it. ( A1023456 )"

Traveller in time holding a note ( paper)
|~~|"I have done some calculations for you.

of negative and positive. Even better,
have a look at this one:

on a thead ( F124705?thread=279587 )
"Ok I am using the square root (introducing
^0.5 from nowhere) for my own fracture."

<> playing with a little diffractive cube
"Do you have the Guide in backup with you, I have got one here"
trying to find a fitting slot on your laptop
"Hmm, ask sam for a compatible update. It can be good fun for calm days."


Nephew Who tapping on his console
"Checked some of the bird protection site, no references to this albatros project perhaps let someone email them of current site. John and sail manufacturer have good link"

Susan Winkle aka Nephew Who also on the console
"I do not get this. BBC does not point to this site in a search for albatross? . . .
(perhaps while "our" server was down)

found
( www.savethealbatros.org.za ) dnel@ or Lviljoen@ to inform about this site
Perhaps let someone else search for notes on bird action lists and inform about this one."


Traveller in Time again
"Do you have an image of the sea, nothing in particular perhaps a wave, bird or fish in very background, <=15K and there it goes: 1000*100, horizon wrong way curved, bowl shaped. I am designing a yacht and could use a sea to sail in."

Nephew Who looking up
"And Who has to build it. Images of diagonals, curves on transparent background would also be great. And much faster to build with. Some would go wild for a vertical spectrum line."

Traveller in Time....

I've fixed the link errors and have taken aboard the other gems - but sadly my own time is running out. With just hours to go before I depart, and then a week offline (will I stay sane?), I'll not get close to this for a while. And then it'll be this and that and the other as we finally ready the boat for the off on the 26th. But thanks to you and that pesky wee nephew... the pages will slowly improve.

Nick

Sailor in Time barking commands to Traveller, Nephew and the Susans
"You nitwith landludders! Do I have to do all the cleaning around here! Get going! Take the scrubbing brushes and do your duty! ( A1107235 )"

Nephew Who sneaking out covered by a fog created by crew and ornithologists
"I made up the Bunks for all the crew members as far as I understand this. ( A1108360 )"

Traveller in Time after instructing Susan Winkle how to whipe the deck
"Take a look at my yacht ( A1108379 ) she will always be under construction. She sails fine we just only need to connect the instruments. How about one page with GPS log each time new into list table name of the page each day current GPS position, such link will show on instrument display dayly"

Susan Winkle aka Nephew Who checking the date on her console
"Do not understand 26th
LEG ONE
ASP after FRI 25 JULY 2003
But another problem (?) We all will go to the beach on Home ( A1086112 ) ( A1056935 ) that same day, perhaps wee see you passing by in the first few weeks."

Sailor in Time coiling the hawsers
"Have you all seen the Helms cab, that is what I think of clean. Now brush it, you marmots!"

Traveller in Time on his head
"We just cleaned the wheel, not again, I get square fingers due to cleaning it."
Adressing NamedNick
"That Sailor in Time will not make lots of friends I guess. Check out the personal spaces of the other crew members, perhaps you can make some friends."

flapping his way over the deck
"I really like this watery environment.
The personal space is a special entry automatically filled by routines with links.
Making postings and other personal properties appear personal instead of belonging to an entry.
The user content of your personal space entry is A894567 a number way down in your ( <./>MA211163?show=50&skip=0&type=2</.> ) list.
Your 'Journal' is just a special posting thread dangling { the only posting you ever can erase[ ==hide] } on the entry.
For 'friends' these journal postings appear in their list of recent postings.
Them who have you marked as friend see these postings ( check 'another richard' he marked you as friend, then we came along ).
Perhaps we are way out on this but this structure fits in the experience."

<> browsing the Guide
"Your entries are in the edited Guide, but they do not show the edited status in MA listing ??? Jim Lynn (terrorists, that should catch his attention), something wrong with the GuideML Editing UltraEdit32 program."

Susan Winkle aka Traveller in Time, Susan Winkle aka on her head
"You should not really bother about time and '|v|i|r|t|u|a|l|' things to do, first albatross would not be before Africa. Hmm, by the way can you shoot some canary's on the way, we have some miners down here in despair for them. Virtually shooting them is what I mean."

Traveller in Time and Susan Winkle aka both on his head
"Do not worry about transition delays we are singing a song somewhere down a page lasting 2 years for the first three lines ( 15 words! )"

Nephew Who reading a German document
"Hmm, you should not use the electronics during charging of the batteries, or you should use a dedicated voltage stabiliser circuit with extreme care."

Sorry that was a Mouse' O That was not a Mouse' O It could have been a type' O but I saw it you where just typing the sentence twice. Sentence twice. Now you did it again. Stop that!, stop that immediatley! stop it now! Do not type anymore send the excuus send it, push that button again, now with care. Ok thank you------

Sailor in Time comes in carrying a poster
"Ahey there, look what I found. ( A1110961 ) Somebody dropped it in on my forecastle. I think you should also display it somewhere."

Traveller in Time holding an umbrella on one of the ribs
"Wet out here in Ardmore. Where can I find this map you discussed with some of the ornithologists? We will try to get a weather update ourself until you leave. By that time we will have to made arrangements to keep updated entries yours. ( perhaps we can convince the towers to create a Joined User Space for this )"

Nephew Who pointing at the edit button
"Although some researchers seem to find it hard I manage to update a page without problems. That is first refresh all your caches or just dump an altered backup-copy of a page. Feel free to suggest any changes. I will not create links to any off topic own entries. However most subjects I come up with are not covered at all in this Guide so I have to create them."

enjoying the soaked moors
"I tried to create an example of pictographic language ( A1116163 ). We have a five year old non reader to test these. ( as long as she does not try to read it! )"

SnackSeller carrying a box on his belly
"Albatross to save! Albatross to save! ( <./>http://www.savethealbatross.org</.> )"

Nephew Who looking up from his console
"Now I am totally lost, that is this site? "

The rest you will find on 'Happy Birthday John Ridgway' ( A1121455 )

Nephew Who finally managed to read all posting again
"Fleet 77, souds good, mention that in Communications on English Rose V1 perhaps, at least 64Kb is something... releaved, and you prepared the publications. Now I can not wait, we will see, I guess."

Traveller in Time signing off to sea sun and sand
"Have a Good Yacht."

swimming round the canaries
"< A966747 > does not have a valid content page link <./>Page index for the Albatros Voyage</.> < A903917 > has been removed.

The Fishcer Panda link still does not work fine it still tries to catch me."

Traveller in Time on his head
"Slowly get something of a feeling to be a little ignored, feel free to guide me if I am sailing the wrong way."

Thank you very much indeed for pointing this out to us. I've fixed those links now! And no, you're not being ignored! Keep track of the latest news in the boat's online log book: A1107262

Cheers for now.
