Things you find

University uses banks of IDE drives for backup solution (70Tb worth). The backup system was installed back in 2002; I'd be curious about a follow-up to see how it's worked out.

Dresden files

This last week's is still holding the bar up. Too bad there's only one more episode.

I don't think it'll be back next season. For those interested, this episode and last episode (10 and 11) are so far the high point of the series.

Another passing ...

Kurt Vonnegut died earlier tonight; he was 84. He had survived the firebombing of Dresden in 1945 (he was a POW at the time) and an attempted suicide in 1984.

So it goes.
