Stuff Michael Meeks is doing

|
This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit
Collabora
Productivity a subsidiary of Collabora focusing on LibreOffice support and
services for whom I work.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.
Failing that, there are all manner of interesting things to read on
the LibreOffice Planet news
feed.

Up early; to work, installed a recent image; trotted off
to Cambridge on the train - pottered about enjoying the sun.
Caught up with the Collabora crowd. Pizza lunch, good to see
Christian again.
-
Train back; dug at mail, entertained babes while J. went
to a parent's evening. Dinner, Tony came over to talk - good time.
Amazed by the staggering ignorance of basic accounting in this
solar
rave - if you spend $38000 now, and expect to get slightly less
than $38000 back over twelve years, you are loosing money.
Payback
needs to be compared in net present value terms; still, a >10%
return anually seems reasonable in today's market with ten year
treasuries at sub 4%. Anyhow, despite the numbers not adding up
he's hit on my new favorite solution for sustainable energy - Solar:
numbers,
perspective.

created by me and (unless obviously labelled otherwise) are licensed under

themselves, in context, in the battle for ideas, and I love fixes /
improvements / corrections by private mail.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Collabora, SUSE,
Novell, The Document Foundation, Spaghetti Hurlers (International),

It's also important to realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences
or fun.
