If I brought back the 30, you'd be the first to be kicked out.

Dream on :-)

All legit as they say. We were at a wedding. I brought back 2x(10x50gms) & as the bride, groom & groom's brother didn't smoke, they "brought" back the same as their "personal allowance" :-) I just "helped" them with my "personal allowance" of booze for them :-)

Nice to have friends :-)

Nah, some good beer and a glass of decent port will do me, not into "smokes".

LOL & from an ex-smoker to boot.

As you very well know I smoked simple cigarettes, I did not go into the other stuff. Anyway I have relatives coming round for drinks and snacks, better things to do.
Nobody suggested you did. However All I know is that you're an ex-smoker. What you smoked is your business, but it would be nice if you refrained from implying others "did other stuff".

So, toodle pip old chap, & don't forget your glass of port with the canapés :-)

@ Jord thank you about the news, the e-mail verification issue is being dealt with.
As to drugs, what ever your thing is, enjoy it. Just don't don't cook Meth in my neighborhood.

Keep an eye on issue #1828, but do know that this thing costs money. What I understand is, it can be up to $200.- a year, which may not be much, but is quite substantial when BOINC is all out of money. (No, no need for a rescue operation, BOINC does have $200.- if need be for one year. :-))

But we need someone to write the code changes. Hence the github issue.
I hope someone picks it up before summer. And else I'll spam it at the developer group. ;-)

They could be getting their own back for the short one last week....

Remember when you could " set your clock " by seti going "down" for the weekly outrage , it was as almost as acurate as a atomic clock but nowadays who knows .
Hope the staff did it remotely bit early to be in at work ( and doubt they get " overtime " pay for their effots :-( )

Probably not for seti but they must get a sallery / paycheck every month from the Uni , doubt they are millionares and do everything they do for " the love of it " coz they are so well off they don't need any income
