there were trolls red?
4:33 am

bad case of trolls... several, and it went on and on.
4:34 am
Kazzer99

I assume yesterday- i finished quite early on as we went for a walk
4:36 am
rbud

yes, the last couple of hours of the last grid, I think, and a bit over into this one. Then there was server trouble, too, just around flip time. Many couldn't finish, because the grid stopped working.
4:36 am
Kazzer99

urgh thats not good -specially if Dr G is on his hols
4:37 am
Kazzer99

this is a monster grid today - down to 158 to go
4:37 am
redturtlehead

I could not bear the trolls, so I left with 19-20 left.
4:38 am
rbud

he popped in, finally, and fixed everything. Can you imagine, one of the trolls even named themself after Dr. G - bizarre.
4:39 am
redturtlehead

Well, they saw us allasking each other- "Was Dr God called"?
4:39 am
Kazzer99

its v difficult to ignore the little b*ggers, specially if bad language is involved or particularly when they keep dropping words into the chog
4:40 am
redturtlehead

they would copy and past the entire of the chog into the chog...and I htink having to process those large amts is what may have gottne the server.
4:40 am
rbud

yes, and kept copying and pasting everything on this whole page, so likely saw his name at the bottom right, too, I was thinking.
4:40 am
Kazzer99

sounds like a concerted effort to break the sever
4:41 am
rbud

lucky only the part of chog showing would copy, whew - not the whole thing!
4:41 am
redturtlehead

I think it was a smart, but bored kid...maybe 12.
4:41 am
redturtlehead

Ladies have a good day, I have to go running...be back in a few hours...
4:42 am
Kazzer99

hmm some of the worst when they are bored
4:42 am

yes, I think they were likely all the same person, maybe on diff. browsers
4:42 am
rbud

enjoy your run, red :)
4:42 am

well i have to go for a little while - need to investigate the washing machine - rescue socks before I turn it into the tumble drier

If a mosque ever open in my town (which is pretty unlikely), I will organize a bunch of Christians and Jews and Buddhists to form a prayer wall around it, with the idea that if someone wants to go after the Moslems they'll have to take out a few folks of their own faith first! Maybe even a few atheists would join!

if they are ignored they might just go away, they are just looking for attention
5:11 pm

I wish other people would. Then there was that "not to worry "I" have emailed Dr. God". Like that hadn't already happened by ten other people for hours.
5:13 pm

Seriously, though. These trolls? What pleasure do they get out of being absolute twats?
5:13 pm

Sick pleasure.

luckily i wasn't around. i KNOW it's best to ignore them but sometimes it's just so much fun to play with them.
5:14 pm
Soodle

Obviously they are sad and lonely people, but what pleasure do they derive from being nasty? I find being nice is sooo much easier than being nasty!
5:14 pm
periwinkle

still 55 to go tho
5:15 pm
hurshy

i think the being nasty gives them a sense of power/control ?

Oh heck. Computer is telling me its time for bed. Well done Angel.

what i think is weird is that my sense is that Congress still at this moment has no comprehension of how utterly disgusted people are with them.

goodnight everybody. thanks for the marvelous company - as always. :-)

5:19 pm
nrkii

They don't care, Dorens, because they keep us more afraid of the "other guys" than we are of them
5:19 pm
hurshy

but nrkii, we have so little choice - a lot of times when you want to kick people out just to send a message, you end up replacing them with people who are even worse!

5:20 pm

good people have to much sense ever to want to run, why would they subject themselves to it?
5:20 pm
nrkii

hurshy, you've made my point exactly
5:20 pm
Dorens

part of the problem... .who would want to run
5:21 pm
nrkii

I would run, but I'd never get elected because I am not motivated by power
5:21 pm
Dorens

ah, so we are all in agreement then. nice
5:21 pm
MollyL

Wonder what would happen if everyone stopped voting.
5:21 pm
hurshy

it'd be even easier for the rich to buy elections than it already is?
5:21 pm
nrkii

and I think a lot of my friends on the "other side" would actually vote for me, because they know I'm sane and well-meaning
5:22 pm
nrkii

now if we could just find some sane and well-meaning people who actually are running
5:22 pm
hurshy

i think elizabeth warren might be one.
5:22 pm
nrkii

last time I voted, I voted against all incumbents on principle
5:23 pm
hurshy

and actually the woman who i think is the green party candidate looked pretty good to me.
5:23 pm
nrkii

that didn't get me far, but it gave me a small bit of satisfaction
5:23 pm
hurshy

the one consolation of living in a "safe state" is that you can vote for whoever you want and know that it won't matter. so i like to encourage other parties.

hurshy

i think one of the most appalling things is these voter ID laws getting passed in various places.
5:26 pm
Dorens

now why don't they come up with a national id card... free and interchangeable among all 50 states?
5:26 pm
crosshair

lol hurshy.one year i also found the green party the best of a bad bunch and voted for her,they got enough votes that year to get one seat in the house of commons!
5:27 pm
hurshy

because that would scare the he** out of a lot of people.
5:27 pm
hurshy

ah, the beauty of proportional representation, crossy!
5:27 pm
redturtlehead

I think money Dorens. We have a similar thing with Nursing Liscensure. We all take the same exam, but can we have a liscence for ALL 50 states, NO...we have to pay for each one and apply for each one.
5:27 pm
Dorens

states' rights
5:28 pm
nrkii

but the states that are passing the voter ID laws, as far as I've heard, are allowing people to get free IDs, aren't they?
5:28 pm
nrkii

just not interchangeable
5:28 pm
Dorens

same as teaching... no reason why one certification can't work for all 50 states... particularly since federal legislation mandates so much for public education
5:28 pm
hurshy

"free" but you have to show other documentation to prove who you are, say, birth cert, or whatever, which you have to pay to get, so, not really free, and some people literally can't afford it.
5:28 pm
redturtlehead

You can not get a free ID in Florida, as far as I know. and you know Rick Scott has been removing people from the Voter lists, I am waiting for that.
5:29 pm
redturtlehead

I mean, I am waiitng to be removed.
5:29 pm
hurshy

the costs of getting these other forms of ID to get your free photo ID are actually higher than the poll taxes were before they declared poll taxes unconstitutional.
5:29 pm
nrkii

All I know is Massachusetts kept me on the voter list for years after I moved away and was voting elsewhere
5:30 pm
nrkii

so I could have easily voted twice
5:30 pm

Oh I had that problem too, I was on the list in PA. I wrote them letters, called, etc. I think I'm off now.

policeman took down the gunman, but got shot several times himself in the process
5:35 pm

so i'm sure now is a completely inappropriate time to discuss GUN CONTROL!!!!!!!
5:36 pm
redturtlehead

I have to say, it seems that we really are not doing well with screening people for gun purchases.
5:36 pm
Dorens

and the gunman? another loonie who should have been noticed and helped somewhere along the line, but we don't have the resources and services in place. Not to mention., yes hurshy, this is such an inappropriate time
5:36 pm
redturtlehead

Though My Dad has a shotgun, and it has only been used on poor hapless muskrats...
5:37 pm
redturtlehead

How do you NOT notice when someone is so strange. People really don't talk to each other anymore.
5:38 pm
Dorens

well, particularly the strange ones. we avoid them, cause they are strange. but family, coworkers, md's?
5:38 pm
MollyL

Then there are the sociopaths who are good at fooling people.
5:38 pm
redturtlehead

Indeed. I onften wonder though if family is very well equipped to get help for people...
5:39 pm
MollyL

Family often sticks their collective heads in the sand.
5:39 pm
ChampFit

I don't know about other states, but Texas is NOT good at dealing with mentally impaired people. Like last or next to last in the nation. Hi all....
5:39 pm
Dorens

but often there are signs, and they don't try that hard to fool. the ones who want to take out a whole movie theater, or a whole temple. they usually have been known to rant and rave at some point. or seek help (as the aurora guy did)
5:39 pm
redturtlehead

that and they may not exactly be the best people leading very successful lives.
5:40 pm
Dorens

agreed
5:40 pm
redturtlehead

It really saddens me. and I am not a fan of people being able to buy assault style rifles.
5:40 pm
redturtlehead

Hi Champ.
5:41 pm
Dorens

there is no justifiable reason that i've ever heard (to have assault rifles legally sold)
5:41 pm
MollyL

There are a lot of things in today's society that encourage the mentally unstable. The internet for one. It can be a playground for people like that.

today's guy used a handgun

i just had a sucky week at a conference. . .i was looking for bullet holes and then drove home a 2.5 hour drive that took nearly 7 hours
8:51 pm
jmcnrick

nope not me
8:51 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

actual bullet holes?
8:51 pm
Trifioso

perhaps it was scrabbler.....
8:51 pm
MollyL

Scrabs is big into historical fiction, it might have been her.
8:52 pm
jmcnrick

no metaphorical bullet holes
8:52 pm

It took you 7 HOURS to get home from Frostburg?
8:53 pm

Men geek folk are womanless because it is hard to find an intellectual equal or one female that isn't going to judge them on their geekness or try and get them to change.

and on the topic of geeks, here's an anecdote: the organizers of the Comic Con in Novi, Michigan, ask for volunteers to do odd jobs during the con, and one of their requirements is that you don't smell bad and so forth

That's okay, I understand 30 -- we were close to 35 at one point today outside, but were able to keep the house below 30.

10:57 pm
stidmama

I don't know dose -- I don't follow that sport. But I think it's pretty good, because that is a school that is in the tops of many sports.
10:58 pm
stidmama

And that sounds reasonable, to me -- Kids need to know that they have actually earned their grades, and perhaps this will spur her to more responsible scholarship (not holding my breath though)
10:58 pm

... Lacrosse is more of an eastern game ...
10:59 pm

11:00 pm
doseffing

... we teach math incorrectly ... we don't get them to learn what the words mean ... and we don't teach them any logic
11:00 pm
stidmama

I think lacrosse and field hockey and rugby are more eastern -- or maybe there is just a bigger population and so it seems there is more of it.
11:01 pm
stidmama

Yes, and I think sometimes we get so caught up in finding the "best" methods and books that we don't really focus on just helping the kids understand the basics.
11:01 pm
doseffing

... I always associate it with the Iroquois Confederation in upstate New York
11:02 pm
stidmama

I heard a GREAT mantra on Prairie Home Companion this morning: Practice, Perseverance, Patience. These are the qualities of scholars in any field; in math/logic particularly so. We want instant answers and forget to tell the children that sometimes it takes extra time and extra work.
11:02 pm
doseffing

... that's what I was trying to help them with ... I keep telling them that they get the Grade 11 stuff ... but they can't do it because they don't have the foggiest idea of Grade 8

I do too (associate lacrosse with Eastern Woodlands) not sure why

ah, yes, that is obvious -- except the French learned it from the Iroquois, yes?

... apparently they played an exhibition game outside of some fort ... then threw the ball into the fort and the defenders let them in to recover it .. ... and got themselves slaughtered ... at least that's the story

I had an ancestor and some other relatives who died at Schenectady in New York when the Mohawks did something similar.
11:08 pm
doseffing

... Ah well ... Washington did a number on the Iroquois after that ... ... and they all moved across the Niagara to Brantford ... where they still occupy golf courses which were part of their original treaty reservation
11:10 pm

... or they smuggle cigarettes back and forth across the StLawrence in speed boats that the police would kill to get their hands on
11:10 pm

... or they run the casinos
11:10 pm

Seems there are still a lot of issues, yes? There was so much pain on both sides.
11:12 pm
doseffing

... We drove to New York in the summer of 2000 and crossed at Ganonoque ... north of Watertown ... ... there was a big roadside billboard advertising cheap cigarettes ... ... it had been defaced and all shot up ... ...
11:13 pm

There are similar issues out here as well -- although much shorter history, of course
11:13 pm

... they occupied a golf course and housing development west of Toronto for the past five years ... lots of bad blood over that
11:15 pm

... they shut down the Via trains between Montreal, Toronto and Ottawa every few years by occupying the tracks through the reservation west of Kingston ... ... lots of bad blood over that

In this country, so often tribes were herded to locations that were inadequate to meet their needs, or not part of their homelands. And then they made the children leave their families and not speak their language -- not even their true names. It was shameful. I am glad that our local people at least are reclaiming their language and culture. We have enjoyed seeing the local people do better financially now that they have the casino, originally a number of different villages were crammed onto a single island that didn't even have fresh water on it. Shameful.

... oh they've been treated badly ... even immorally for centuries here too ... ... I mean ... the British gave them blankets after the war of 1812 when they were resettled out of Michigan and Ohio ... ... but the blankets were laced with small pox ... ... nice way to treat the allies who saved your butt ...

11:19 pm

... and they took us to the United Nations for human rights violations and equated us with Gaddafi
11:21 pm
doseffing

... and now there's talk that they're negotiating with the Chinese over mineral rights and circumventing the Canadian government entirely ... ... not going to go over well politically
11:22 pm

11:23 pm
