I was watching some vidz of Trance Energy from Holland (February 16th, 2002) and you can tell that half the people there are on some sort of drugs…it’s pretty insane.
You’ll see people dancing like mad (out of control) and then you’ll see a guy standing there just looking at his feet.
Other than that, the video is pretty well done.

Woooo…I’ve converted the commenting system to a forum type system.
There is support for private forums so if you need one setup then let me know…
Also, you should register if you want to post to certain forums.

don’t need cheerleaders. This isn’t a post to tarnish the reputation of cheerleaders; rather, it is a post to discuss why exactly certain sports need cheerleaders.
Many sports that are boring seem to have some sort of sideshow. I will group mascots into the cheerleading group because that’s what mascots at baseball games do…they lead cheers.
A crowd watching a real game shouldn’t be told what to do, rather they should have the spirit from watching the game to start their own cheers.

As per request I am creating a commenting section for the fairplay campaign (until I finish writing the forum).
Posted on: 04:02:30 05-10-2002 by tushar
As you’ll notice on the left (in the login area)…you can now register on this site.
Why should you register? Well, first off, hmm…I don’t know, but I’ll figure it out, I was planning on allowing moderating of the comments which were going to be transformed into a forum type dealio.
So, registration now gives you the power to edit peoples comments in the future (you have to be my friend to get that privilege).

with the nameservers for many places going all nuts I’m putting up a list of IP addresses that are useful:
student.math.uwaterloo.ca
129.97.204.16
t5.uwaterloo.ca
129.97.32.213
google.ca
216.239.37.100
bacon
129.97.204.93
hmm…that’s about all I can think of that are important…of course, once you get to baocn you can look the rest up
Note: by listing bacon I do not in anyway give preference to that server on the math undergrad computing environment…I know that some of you like rees or landen

I was wondering why my program wasn’t rendering a specific set of Cantor sets and then I remembered that Scheme can handle some pretty large and pretty tiny numbers.
I’d forgotten to tell it to stop reading after a certain number of decimal places and as it turns out, it read 200 or so decimal places (just kept goin in memory)…why 200 or so? Cause I’d set a variable somewhere that contained that value…lol
Anyways, I’m just using exact numbers now…like fractions and Scheme can handle

Not for sale. By the way we paid $250,000 for it.
hmm…I think I see a flaw in the business plan…
