You got fired, and you still hang around here like a big loser. Why can't he?

Our wings are not tired

Actually that's going to become more of a bandwidth issue to do 10-12 streams to each site.

Trust my rage

I totally love my iPhone too!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm listening to the most recent (all iPhone) TWiT, and it's so cute how everyone sheepishly admits that they bought 2...

Also, D is in his sling in my lap right now, and he's very fussy listening to this. Clearly he wants me to get an iPhone, right? And honestly, what kind of mother would I be if I denied him?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Clearly he wants me to get an iPhone, right?

Of course! He's just a baby -- how can you expect him to deal with the graphical conventions of a typical phone interface?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

OS X question--how do you switch between windows of an application? The ^F4 equivalent, I mean. There must be an easier way than mousing the main mail window, for instance, out of the way of the child message window.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

I use F10, I think. Either that or F11 shows you all the windows of the program you're in and I usually select the one I want from that screen.

Back on the Video conferencing thing again. OK so four streams is the max that normal user bandwidth can handle. There are a number of free Video services that handle this -- Festoon for example. However we are not limited to free Video conferencing, though we want to keep it cheap. Again any suggestion for free and cheap Video conferencing services? (say keep our total for the four day conference less than $1,200). We will live with no more than four simultanouse screens -- one for the in person conference, one for the speaker/facilitator, one for an on-screen doc or whiteboard, one for whoever is next in the speaking queue.

Had anyone had to open 2007 Word documents with 2003 Word yet? I downloaded the converter and can open and edit the documents, but it seems to have changed other Word settings.
