Re: Google Wave
Hi Lance, have you got a gmail address you want to use? I have sent Nick & Dave invites, and I am happy to you one too, but I want to invite a few others from elsewhere so three invites for the Brin List will have to do for now. Looking forward to waving with you in the near future, Regards, Wayne. P.S. Google says: "Google Wave is more fun when you have others to wave with, so please nominate people you would like to add. Keep in mind that this is a preview so it could be a bit rocky at times. Invitations will not be sent immediately. We have a lot of stamps to lick. Happy waving!" - Original Message - From: "Lance A.

Weekly Chat Reminder
The Brin-L weekly chat has been a list tradition for over ten years. Way back on 27 May, 1998, Marco Maisenhelder first set up a chatroom for the list, and on the next day, he established a weekly chat time. We've been through several servers, chat technologies, and even casts of regulars over the years, but the chat goes on... and we want more recruits! Whether you're an active poster or a lurker, whether you've been a member of the list from the beginning or just joined today, we would really like for you to join us. We have less politics, more Uplift talk, and more light-hearted discussion. We're non-fattening and 100% environmentally friendly... -(_() Though sometimes marshmallows do get thrown. The Weekly Brin-L chat is scheduled for Wednesday 3 PM Eastern/2 PM Central time in the US, or 7 PM Greenwich time. There's usually somebody there to talk to for at least eight hours after the start time. If no-one is there when you arrive just wait around a while for the next person to show up! If you want to attend, it's really easy now. All you have to do is send your web browser to: http://wtgab.demon.co.uk/~brinl/mud/ ..And you can connect directly from the NEW new web interface! -- William T Goodall Mail : w...@wtgab.demon.co.uk Web : http://www.wtgab.demon.co.uk Blog : http://radio.weblogs.com/0111221/ "This message was sent automatically using launchd.

Fwd: Another on-line test . . .
This is a story about a girl. While at the funeral of her own mother, she met a guy whom she did not know. She thought this guy was amazing, so much the dream guy that she was searching for that she fell in love with him immediately. However, she never asked for his name or number and afterward could not find anyone who knew who he was. A few days later the girl killed her own sister. Question: Why did she kill her sister? First, find your own answer to this question. Then, check out below for the answer. (separator space) | | v | | v | | v | | v | | v | | v | | v | | v | | v | | v Answer: She reasoned that if the guy appeared at her mother's funeral, then he might appear another family funeral. If you answered this correctly, you think like a psychopath. This was a test by a famous American psychologist used to test if one has the same mentality as a killer. Many arrested serial killers took part in this test and answered correctly. If you didn't answer the question correctly, good for you. If you got the answer correct, please let me know so I can take you out of my address book. . . . ronn! :) ___ http://mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l_mccmedia.com
Brin: Paradox Dragon
This is very cute: http://www.partiallyclips.com/pclipslite.php?id=1008 Unfortunately, their is an error in the strip. According to the first panel the second dragon can not be the alternating Trvth/Lie teller [*]. According to the third panel the second dragon must be the alternating Trvth/Lie teller [!]. Quite the paradox (although not what is implied by the strip). So how can this strip be minimally changed so that it doesn't contract itself (the puzzle is solvable, i.e. one head each is as described)? *: The first and third dragon are in agreement which means one of them must be the alternating Trvth/Lie teller. T AL L, T AT L, L AT T, and L AL T, all contradict what panel 1 says. !: The second Dragon Tells a double negative. If he always tells the Trvth then he cannot have Lied. If he always tells lies then he cannot have told the Trvth about it. He can only say "yes I was Lying" if he were the alternating Trvth/Lie teller. ___ http://mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l_mccmedia.com
