I have clicked on every conceivable link, here and on her website, but my mail comes back.

Is she available, or what?

Dude, MacCannister may be jack-booted, but she's got more RAM than that . . .

That can't be Mac--the desk is too clean and clear for it to be a writer's.

Don't worry. The new server is almost up and running.

Oh, Lordy, that looks somewhat like the first AES computer I ever used.

Here Mac is updating the database. Some of you just don't know what it takes to run the AW website.

My favorite part of that is the big-ass steering wheel.
Ahem, the computing storage core gyroscope balance modulator, if you don't mind. In the old days, the big mainframes tended to slowly lean towards magnetic north. This had to be compensated for three times a year. As technumogical advances were made and total core memory reached a staggering 32 bits, the modulator became redundant, but was still included in new builds because it impressed the heck out of customers.

HOW old ARE you? Even I didn't know that. And I were an engineer.

Heh. I'm around. Still wading through the 400+ PMs in my box.

I'm actively avoiding my email, at this point, lest I get trapped, and no one ever sees me again.

Sure, go ahead, ask me about any kind of sex. You get to my age, all you can do is talk about it.

-Derek

Is it true that ... no wait ... you oldies have great imaginations.

Anyway, where's Mac? I sent her like 400 PMs complaining about the mods and such.

That one I sent...about the donkey and the bucket of custard...just ignore it. I'd hit the Smirnoff that night and was feeling lonely.

Just don't tell anyone.
