Sorry I missed @jransom's talk on Te Takere, which got rave reviews. Saw the outside from the bus on the way back, and now want to see more!2012-09-26T20:48:20+00:00 To: Public
After hearing Poi E so many times during #lianza2012 (used to signal the start of sessions), I now have it as a semi-permanent earworm.2012-09-22T23:07:28+00:00 To: Public
Looking forward to #lianza2012. Taking the train to get here was great--lovely day, interesting views, more relaxing than driving or flying!2012-09-06T18:33:37+00:00 To: Public

There are too many people who try to build themselves up by putting other people down. Nitpicking negativity is very demotivating!2012-07-21T07:21:54+00:00 To: Public
In just five week's I'll be back in Canada for a two-week holiday (Vancouver, Montreal, and Edmonton). Counting the days12012-07-20T02:53:16+00:00 To: Public
In Auckland. Walked past the Langham, where many teenaged girls were shouting Justin at the windows. Nothing happened, so they did it again.2012-07-06T21:32:55+00:00 To: Public
Mail problem is not just me. It appears to be affecting at least one of my colleagues as well. Overly zealous spam filtering, perhaps?2012-07-06T21:08:54+00:00 To: Public
My VUW email address has stopped working. I can send messages, but all incoming messages are being rejected. This is not good!2012-07-04T00:58:49+00:00 To: Public
Dear person who had an appointment with me at noon: It is now 12:57 pm. You haven't called to say you're not coming. Not a good look! …2012-07-04T01:00:50+00:00 To: Public
… I don't know how to reach you, since you made the appointment by phone. I'm going out to get some lunch now, since I've waited long enough2012-06-17T21:51:36+00:00 To: Public
