 Scott: saw it, looks good
  although barrett noticed a minor error I believe
 me: yeah, we have to show Swirly that we've got reasons for doing what we're doing and that he'll need to do some convincing if he wants us to change up our procedures
12:55 PM Clark: the more dialog goes on among the geeks the better, we are more likely to get a usable product as a result of debate
 me: yep indeed
 Scott: who's swirly?
12:56 PM sorry but I'm semi-retarded
 me: Tom Swirly, one of the new recruits
 Clark: http://radio.swirly.com/
 me: ah
 Clark: hes on the spreadsheet now
 Scott: Clark, the PM spreadsheet?
 Clark: yes
12:57 PM i hope
  let me know if i lapsed on him
 Scott: I think someone stole him.
 Clark: fuck
12:59 PM hes there, its out of alphabet order, i was sorting the techs to the top
1:00 PM Scott: ahhh
  my fault
 Clark: RE: Geoff Nin: there is a problem with having more than one characteristic in a given column, it screws up the sorting
1:01 PM Scott: maybe we should have 2 geoffs then
 Clark: no, add an extra column
 Scott: touche
 Clark: i am not sure what the difference between a program developer and a systems person is
1:02 PM Scott: your guess is better than mine
 Clark: may want to re-name the sys column
  i called it sys to save space and let the column be narrow
 Scott: Clark, I found the person whom I was referring to in IRC about showing up in IRC.
  It was SVlad
