Edward, thank you so much for the song dedication and kind words. I’ll be back in Japan in a few months, hopefully in time for the next meet-up! Keep up the awesome work, the pod-cast is great. I’m also looking forward to building a home media center thanks to Mr. Sysop’s expertise. Thanks guys!

My friend said facebook wouldnt let him use his two-word nickname even though it:s very similar to my own. I wonder how i got away with it and how would they know the difference??? i wonder about that. but im glad i got away with it!!! I:m Van Tilden BTW
I know a couple police officers who refuse to use facebook and refuse to let their children use it. makes me REALLY wonder….of course….if you were in the business of looking and tracking people, it would be dumb not to use it.
Do you know about the new Spokeo? you can track down everything a person does online there….pics everything. you can remove yourself from the list if you like. many people are nervous.
