Re: wasting my power

Gerald, I can understand your sentiment, more so in light of the year you have had. Kevin has just recently updated the thread in Known Issues with some very open and honest details of what he and his merry band of warriors are doing battle with as we speak. Those of use in the IT field can attest to just how nasty a problem they are working on. I certainly don't envy them but I appreciate their efforts in the middle of what was bound to be their Christmas vacation for at least some of them.

Why the ******? The UD servers are still running. One of my computers is crunching with UD.EXE and the others can always do that when their BOINC work runs out. nerd

Re: wasting my power

if everything was running correctly more progress would be done
If hard drives never crashed like WCG's did...
If servers never went down...
If the power never went out...
If they didn't restore everyone else's data yours would get there faster...
If it never snowed in Boulder, Colorado...
If...
If...
If...
If everything were running correctly (like now) would anyone notice?

If a frog had wings--Yes i do notice and am very happy when things go well---I never complained before and i thought this was a good time so if i got your heart racing while you were sitting on your duff it was healthy and i did a good thing Merry Christmas

Re: wasting my power

Like we say in french, if my aunt would have testicles, we would call her my uncle. laughing

But with so many possible 'if', nothing can be perfect every time.
And if every thing was perfect, we wouldn't be crunching to find cures again so many illness.

Bet that's the first time you've been told that Retsof! laughing

Mary, considering your title of 'Veteran Cruncher' I'm assuming you aren't a schoolchild/student. Hasn't your business ever suffered a major failure of a business dependent piece of equipment? No? Well aren't you the lucky one!

Please remember, at least you weren't the one having to work through the Christmas holidays to try to resolve this major problem. I'm sure glad it wasn't me.

WCG, keep up the good work you do to facilitate this great project. I just clocked up my 1st year of runtime here and look forward to many more.
