Is the Troll's mailbox broken?

Post by Emperor Xan »

I sent off 2 e-mails concerning the castle builder book Friday afternoon PST. The first being smaller as it was just text. Regardless, both bounced. I've been editing about 50 pages a week as I get paperwork out of the way so I can finalize my transfer to UC Irvine. I know that the Trolls would appreciate to get the book before I get sucked into a research program in 6 weeks. I'd turn it down, but the school's paying me to participate as well as giving me 2/3 of a semester's worth of units.

Lake Geneva Con has probably taken a lot of time and the email may have been set aside a few days, causing the Inbox to fill up and some emails to bounce, since they essentially have no place to go. Just give it a few days and try again after they have pared down some of the emails.

I'm just guessing here.

Quite a safe bet. If someone needs to get something to Steve TLG related, BCC me a copy and I'll see that he gets it.

We've been away to Lake Geneva since Wednesday and are really only now back in office and running shop. I worked today, but mostly unpacking stock and shelving stuff. Mark had the day off. Peter is of course in Oklahoma. Pretty much any convention that the whole crew has to break for shuts our email down. I don't check it on the road. I have heard that this is possible on some kind of fancy phone that doesn't connect to the wall and such.

Yes, this is possible and something else . . . computer connectivity through the air waves!!!. Yep, people accessing the internet through the air.

Most likely some internet downloads were passing through your body at the CON while you were working and gaming.

Probably most of them were PORN.

*grin* Actually, it might explain why the net connection in the game room sucked rocks and why the connection worked best back in the plaza hotel, when Steve was 500 yards away from my lap top.
