Hi Phil - Yes, the FEQAB has recognized that the World does not circulate 
around Iowa, especially in terms of time zone relativity (yes Doug, I know 
this is shocking). I have been intentionally shifting the FEQ Question 
announcement such that no one time zone is favored all the time. I am 
getting ready to get on a plane for the SMTAI/IPC conference/meetings so 
this week was just bounce out there in a quicker fashion. I'll keep 
bouncing the announce time in the future.

Dave

Dave,

This is not a complaint BUT.....the timing of your quiz this morning would 
have all but eliminated those of us Technetters located in the Pacific 
Standard Time zone.  Very few of us are at work at 6 AM already.  I just 
happen to be in Florida on business, so in this case, I did see the 
question with time to answer.

I still did not know the answer without the help of an internet search 
though so is it fair to expect that those whose answered "Md" have a 
periodic table at their disposal?

My point is that timing seems to be an essential element.  Dewey...

Phil

- Well it's time for Clumpy and Kloumpios to join me for some Canadian
wilderness camping in Algonquin Park, Ontario. What we'll do is put the
canoe on the van, load up our camping gear, and then we'll head the
North East area of Algonquin Park. We'll put in on the Barron River and
canoe up to the river to a portage point where Clumpy and Kloumpios will
be asked to portage the canoe and gear for about half a kilometer, past
some falls, until we put back into the river. What we'll do then is
canoe about a mile up stream and setup camp on a beautiful point of land
that over looks the Barron Cliffs and has a pine tree every much like
The Jack Pine http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Jackpine.jpeg that was
painted by Tom Thomson in 1916. I'll start fishing; they will do the
cooking and cleaning.  We will relax for a few days then we'll head back
to Ottawa (given the mosquitoes don't carry us away). Dave - Maybe we can
meet you on the Ottawa River some time next week.

Week 27 Greg Munie, IPC
- Since it's getting close to time for the Abbey's grape harvest/wine
making I'll get the monks to put them up at the Abbey guest house. From
there it's just a short walk to the vineyard. Of course the food at the
Abbey may be a little, ah, Spartan, for their tastes. But I can give them
enough pruning, weeding and cleanup to do to keep them busy all week.
(Maybe I can even get them to do the water run for the vegetable garden!
They'd probably like driving the old tractor.) And for a special perk they
can have the honor of the company of Benny, the Abbey Golden Retriever!

Week 28 Steve Gregory

Week 29 Gus Trakas, Viasystems

Week 29 Steve Creswick

Week 30 ????

Everyone have a safe week!
