nUboon2Agejledbetter: do you know if jtatum will be able to join us for Ubuntu Hour Mtn View tonight?  7pm Red Rock Coffee02:03
nUboon2Agejtatum: okay i went to the RSVP thingy and i see you're signed up, so i'll see ya there.  you may beat me there since i'm over in Santa Clara at the moment w/ only mass transit options.02:13
nUboon2Ageaaditya: ^02:13
nUboon2Ageokay y'all i'm at Red Rock -- first one here (for once)03:00
nUboon2Ageand its 7pm on the dot03:00
pleia2:)03:02
akkI won't be there. :( Didn't feel well, decided I needed to come home early.03:03
jtatumi am home sick :( sorry. i was going to come anyway but don't want to spread this03:11
pleia2hope you both feel better!03:13
nUboon2Age++03:13
rwwheh, popular week for sickness. half of my coworkers are too :(03:14
nUboon2Agei'm sick too03:14
rwwI've been a little ill all week. Getting better, though.03:14
nUboon2Ageaaditya: are you going to make it tonight?03:16
nUboon2Agecrashsystems: , crashsystems1 ^03:16
nUboon2AgeWow, i think this is the first time i was on time for the MV meeting and i'll probably be the only one here tonight. :-)03:34
pleia2aww, sorry!03:35
nUboon2AgeJanuary has been tough for me because of very limited access to the internet making it hard to do the PR03:35
pleia2I've just been too busy lately :(03:35
nUboon2Agei am hoping that James will jump in on PR for MV, Steve on Palo Alto (which we still have to set a second date for) and someone else for SJ.03:36
nUboon2Agebut that didn't happen for this week or last week, so...03:36
nUboon2Agei want to hook up with SJSU LUG for the SJ Ubuntu Hour03:37
nUboon2Agehere i found their web site: http://lug-sjsu.org/about/03:37
akkWould be good to get some of the SJSU folks03:40
akkat least if there's someplace with space ... was the SJ one last week any less crowded than the first one?03:40
nUboon2Ageakk: yeah there was plenty o' space. no prob.03:41
nUboon2Agethe whole center section was empty03:42
nUboon2Ageand if we get there early we can get the space w/ no probl03:42
nUboon2Ageplus i gave the manager an Ubuntu disk last mo and he was very receptive03:43
akkGreat!03:43
nUboon2Ageboy the 'industrial' ambient music they have going right now here is really irritating me. :-/03:43
pleia2industrial ambient?!03:44
pleia2:)03:44
nUboon2Agethere for one 'song' it had all kinds of sounds from everyday life mixed in rhythmically.  But i give that on the big thumbs down.03:49
nUboon2Ages/on/one03:50
nUboon2Ageindustrial ambient03:50
nUboon2Ageas opposed to industrial punk03:51
nUboon2Agewell 9 minutes left and i'm out03:51
nUboon2Agenow their playing REM, which i like (but its a bit too loud imo)03:52
nUboon2Ages/their/they're03:52
nUboon2Ageit doesn't help that i'm directly under a speaker.03:53
nUboon2Age(due to logistics it worked out that way)03:53
nUboon2Agei don't think i've ever noticed the music here before (which is generally a good sign imo)03:54
pleia2:)03:54
nUboon2AgeSteve forgot about tonight.  at least i called him and talked to him for about 15 minutes during the hour to 'redeem' some of the time.03:55
akkI don't remember much music at Red Rock either.03:56
akkI wish restaurants/coffeehouses wouldn't turn up loud music -- I like to talk to people, not shout at them.03:56
nUboon2Ageagreed.  i think they have some theory about making it feel accoustically 'cozy', but i don't care for the practice.03:57
akkAll the really hip crowded popular places seem to be super-loud, so you have to shout. I don't know what people like about that, but apparently they do.03:59
nUboon2Agealso people experience sound differently as they age, so what may be 'fun' when you're young may not be a little later on.03:59
nUboon2Ageokay, well that's 8pm so goodnight all and we'll chat more later. :-)04:00
akkYep -- I've definitely gotten less able to deal with loud noises, or to understand people talking when there's a lot of ambient noise.04:00
akkSeeya, nUboon2Age! Sorry I couldn't be there.04:00
nUboon2Agebuenas noches amiga and hope you're feeling better. akk04:01
