DISQUS

So you do!

Thanks for the kind words, both of you.

I think the point here is not that it's the first log home, but the first one constructed entirely from UK materials, rather than stuff shipped from overseas.

I share your pain, brother… :-)

Surely you can't be implying that women are more prejudiced than men? :-)

Oh, hardly. It just happened to be the pic that was circulated with the press release.

I gave exactly zero thought to how she looked.

What was I meant to do? Hunt for the picture that made her look as late 30s as possible? And what exactly is it about this picture that doesn't make her look like a woman in her 30s?

Yeah - I was a good boy in the end.

Looks like a great pic, not that I understand a word of your post… ;-)

Hmmm.Maybe I'm missing something, but I can't figure out how to use OpenId to sign in here.

"Who commutes for more than 40 minutes?"

Me!

Nice podcast.

WiFi connection seems variable across the hall. Where I'm sitting (front righht, looking from the back, front left from the stage you are on right now...) seems fine. I've been connected all day.

And you're right about the panel title. Distinct lack of enthsiasm from the audience for the issue...

I've never really understood the need for a notability requirement on Wikipedia. Without the size constraints of a paper encyclopaedia, surely there's no problem with anybody being profiled on there? If somebody isn't notable, they won't get linked from any other page and won't get searched for. And if they suddenly become notable for some reason, the content is there.

Seems like old media thinking.
