 		Time is provided by the server, apparently (link); server is reporting the time as Pacific.

Its local time for me too but if there are enough people checking at their local time someone will see the chat. I hope so I won't be near a computer next Thursday.

 		Let me clarify: Once there are chats to read, they will most probably be in Pacific time; the chat log will be time stamped when the conversation takes place.

The primary screen - the PDP-11 - does use the local time.

We simply don't know until there's something to read.

 		4D & 5O and the calendar
I counted 4 Down as this week, making 5 Over today, 10/21!
My guess is that a chat will happen 11:09-11:46 local time for Josh Minker, East Coast IIRC.

Could be - it depends how you count the downs.

 		Well, isn't it coincidence this password prompt showed up today of all days?

I'm really hoping on that time too, but I need to study for an exam tomorrow...

 		4D and 5O's last leg
I've been reading the posts and wondered if perhaps the 4down and 5 over is incorrect. You are basing that the 4 down is based on complete weeks of the month. What if the first week counted is actually started on oct 1st. That would make 4 down the week of 10/17-23. 5 over would then be today the 21st. That is, keeping the same counting method. The last leg for today is 11:09-11:46pm.

So, if my thinking is clear, the message should be today. The next question is, where? The HL&M site, the PDP-11 site, RP site, this blog site?

Ok fish me... I completely missed the above posts ......DOH!!!~ Embarassed

 		No need to trout, it's good to see many have come to the same conclusion.

Same for me.

How did you get from foghorn to toadfish then?


The toadfish makes a "foghorn" sound - from the photo slider on HLM. At least we know the two sites are linked directly, though. Maybe we now need to solve the 5O & 4D bit.


Wow missed a day and there was actually something to do! Congratulations parmav! Way to go!

So does this mean when they meet -- 4D & 5O and bring a foghorn - Will Josh need to bring a Toadfish? A trade?
