- i planned this seminar yesterday, thanks to mary hasbrouck. i sent out mail to the sccs staffers yesterday, asking for someone to be on hand to hand out accounts, but i think they're pretty busy, especially weekends (amazing how many sysadmins play sports or work at the radio station or dance). elaine and aaron were the only people i could find at the last minute in sharples, they said they might drop by, but the two people that needed it, yasmine and andrew, they had to split. so maybe next time. more advertising will do i!
