At the Children's Museum in the morning, set up a new computer for Jennifer, set permissions to allow Peachtree to work in their multiuser environment, and fixed various printing problems. There's a low ceiling on the level of fulfillment possible when working on Windows systems, but working with the nice people at the museum more than makes up for it.

I stopped at Tomlinson for lunch and happened upon Froggy, or “the Frog”. He is one of the CWRU computer world's strongest personalities, and he runs the computer department's labs with my old Storrs compatriot Dave Carlin.

As if by compulsion, I stopped at Hillel and played some intensive variations on an intense theme. At the risk of sounding horribly pretentious, the nature of the music was more Bach-like than my usual: a mind-stretcher, unlike my usual doodling.

The new IBM hard drive arrived. Some weird messages show up when OpenBSD boots. I may switch to NetBSD.
