Penn and Teller: Bullshit was on this evening. Worth checking out. Liked their discussion on profanity and the US First Amendment, but have a few issues with their dismissal of recycling. Entertaining, but a rather Mike Mooreish propaganda edge. It possibly says something (though I am not certain what), that I noticed it far more on the subject I dissagreed with them on than the other. Confirmatory bias? Need to watch that as I shouldn't take a bad arguement seriously just because I agree with their conclusion...

But it was far more entertaining than most of the drivel on TV.

Just installed the Adblocker Plus extension to Firefox. That is nice... I may refine said comment if I find it has been blocking things I want, but for now... bliss...

Back to assembling stuff to bring to interview on Fri. Printer may not like me by the end of this.

Edit: Arsery. Why didn't I do that while I still remembered exactly what I was doing?
While having the hard drive up and running, remembered it would be useful to have access to the old Stromlo mail stuff I had archived via Thunderbird. Found the tarred mail directory, untared it into the right place, such that Thunderbird could see the folder and open it (as per instructions from back when I was archiving things at Stromlo (and had checked at the time to make sure it worked, which it did)). Can see the folders fine, but the email folders appear empty. AAARRRGGGHHHH! Suggestions? I can open in a straight text editor and see that the emails are there (they haven't vanished in a puff of electrons), but it is a different format style, so that may be the issue. But if so, it wasn't an issue 7 months ago. Different upgrades?
