[00:13] <akgraner> poll started :-)
[00:13] <akgraner> everyone should be getting emails within the hour...:-)
[00:15] <akgraner> 267 voters authorized :-)
[00:16] <pleia2> thanks akgraner!
[00:16] <nigelb> .. and voted.
[00:17] <akgraner> pleia2, yw!   Good Luck to everyone!
[00:17] <akgraner> sending email to the mailing list now
[00:30] <akgraner> email to list sent - if anyone is a team member (via LP) with no public email address listed in LP and did not receive a Poll invite please contact me so I can send you the invite to vote
[00:32] <rww> we need to get more candidates for next time around. voting for 4 people for 3 positions always feels like I'm leaving someone out, even though I love all the candidates
[00:34] <pleia2> same number of candidates as last year
[00:35] <rww> I know, I thought the same thing then ;)
[00:35] <pleia2> me too
[00:36] <jledbetter> Ditto. Was hoping more would join after I did :)
[00:40] <jledbetter> Though, at least we had more than the slots.
[00:54] <MichelleQ> Sigh... email fail.  akgraner, would you PM me the poll invite?
[00:57] <akgraner> MichelleQ, email sent...
[00:58] <akgraner> since the poll is not a public poll but limited to the UW LP team members I have to manually add the email addresses..
[01:11] <MichelleQ> I've updated my LP acct., too, so it's got a valid address now
[01:13] <MichelleQ> though it appears, for some reason, that I'm not actually on the UW LP team.
[01:13] <MichelleQ> :-/
[01:13]  * MichelleQ does something about that
[01:16] <MichelleQ> pleia2: thanks.  :-)
[01:16] <pleia2> sure
[01:18] <MichelleQ> I swear I did that once upon a time.  Oh well.
[01:19] <pleia2> yeah, I thought you were on there with the -qimo name
[01:19] <pleia2> but it doesn't show such a name in past users
[01:19]  * pleia2 shrugs
[01:20] <MichelleQ> dunno.  Oh well.  I'm there now. :-)
[01:21] <pleia2> :)
[01:22]  * MichelleQ takes over world, one committee at a time
[01:23] <akgraner> too funny....weren't you there before?  As I have your name from the first election
[01:24] <MichelleQ> It seems as though launchpad ate my U-W membership at some point.
[01:24] <akgraner> just out of curiosity I checked the list from the first election...
[01:25] <akgraner> glad I kept it...:-)  though I am not sure why....  Had to remember the pw I assigned to the file...jeez I need to clean up my home folder, but not tonight....
[01:25] <MichelleQ> I think, perhaps, I should commence drinking.  This isn't the strangest thing that's happened to me today.
[01:26] <MichelleQ> akgraner: yeah, don't start cleaning this late at night- it will lead to something like hard drive replacement for giggles.
[01:28] <akgraner> hey I just learned I can choose between KVM and VirtualBox  in test drive on my new laptop...
[01:28] <akgraner> on the old one I could only use VirtualBox...
[01:28] <akgraner> yay for new knowledge....
[01:28] <MichelleQ> yay for choices!
[01:30] <akgraner> yeah the other machine couldn't do KVM... - not that I understand why one is better than the other (YET) but I am sure by the end of the week I'll know which I prefer
[01:32] <MichelleQ> I need to start building towers for Christmas... it's going to take me three months to get them all built.
[01:32] <pleia2> kvm is faster because it's hardware-based virtualization, but it has a learning curve
[01:32] <pleia2> virtualbox is clicky clicky happy easy :)
[01:33] <pleia2> (I use them both, admittedly using virtualbox when I need something real quick)
[01:33] <akgraner> gotcha
[01:33] <akgraner> I think my Dell hardware was just too old to use the KVM option
[01:33] <pleia2> yeah
[01:34] <pleia2> if your machine is less than 2 years old you have a decent chance of having virtualization, older than that it's unlikely
[01:34] <akgraner> but I still prefer actual hardware to install things on....vs VM however my hopes of my own test lab were dashed today :-(
[01:35] <MichelleQ> :(
[01:35] <akgraner> not that I thought the kids and Pete would give me their machines willingly....
[01:35] <pleia2> lol
[01:35] <MichelleQ> ROFL
[01:37] <akgraner> Though I thought about telling the kids there was a critical update I needed to fix, but they know how to update their own machines so that wouldn't work...but I did think about it
[01:37] <elky> lol
[01:37] <MichelleQ> bwahahah!
[01:37] <elky> you've taught them too much!
[01:38] <elky> Sadly, they're not like cassettes, you can't just rewind them and pretend it never happened :P
[01:38] <akgraner> I know...it's a bit bittersweet...:-/
[01:39] <MichelleQ> I don't suppose they'd believe the Computer Fairies stole them, either, huh?
[01:39] <akgraner> sadly no....
[01:40] <akgraner> but I thought about using the "I'm your mother that's why!" But that's only the break glass for emergency use...
[01:40] <MichelleQ> hahaha, I had to break that one out the other day
[01:41] <akgraner> b/c they say - "You'll always be our mother" insert eye rolls....
[01:41] <MichelleQ> I got "Mommy, that's not a good enough reason."
[01:42] <akgraner> I have also gotten, "That's not a very good counterpoint, you don't debate well!"
[01:43] <MichelleQ> Your children are my children in five years.  This scares me.
[01:43] <pleia2> hehe
[01:44] <akgraner> Oh the conversations between kids and their parents...we encourage critical thinking and backing up your arguments  - it never occurred to me they would use such logic on me...:-/  oops
[01:44] <Cheri703> I didn't like that answer either...
[01:44] <Cheri703> I have always been a "explain the logic behind your request and I'm more likely to go along with it, whether I agree or not" I just want to know that there is a reason for it
[01:45] <MichelleQ> No, son, "because I want to!" is not a valid argument.
[01:45] <akgraner> I once told my daughter stop running in the house - she was 3 or 4 at the time - she stopped and said "I'm not running I am scampering"  I then had to say if you are doing anything other than walking you are wrong...
[01:45] <pleia2> lol
[01:46] <pleia2> man, kids are such trolls :)
[01:46] <MichelleQ> pretty much
[01:46] <akgraner> nods
[01:46] <akgraner> they have great teachers :-P
[01:46] <MichelleQ> Absolutely!
[01:47]  * MichelleQ trolls 'em back
[01:47] <akgraner> same here :-)
[01:49] <akgraner> gotta run - email or PM me if there is an issue with the voting  - laters all
[01:49] <pleia2> later akgraner
[12:31] <akgraner> out of 268 email address I sent voting keys to - 10 of them could not be delivered.  If you feel that your email address listed in LP may be one of the 10 please contact me.  Thanks! :-)
