The updating process gets easier but I wish Drupal 7 was here:-(

Drupal 7 looks good and we are setting up a "Sandbox" as soon as there is a beta release.

Mid April is the current guess.

The only new things on the site are behind the scenes - for example Jason Guo (Xmphony.net) supplied the mynode module that helps me track what we have done on the site - and who has done what. Testing it now but it does look useful. Thanks again Jason:-)

Well there you go!

I have just updated the site to the latest version of Drupal. The only thing left to do is to update the theme that is the base for the theming of the site. It's not a major issue so I'm putting it off for the moment...

I am a bit bored with wingnuts attempting to discredit Al Gore.

They tried to "bag" him for his role in getting the internet going. Well, bad luck, in the 1980s, the internet was just a few computers wired up in the Pentagon for research. As a senator, Al Gore sponsored the very first bill to turn it into a much wider “information superhighway.” Vincent Cerf, who is widely regarded as the technological founder of the internet, has publicly said that it is thanks to Gore that the internet is used by all of us today. So when Gore said in a 1997 interview that he “took the initiative” in making the internet possible, it was true. The other Gore “lies” have equally impressive truths behind them.

The Climate Change Denialists are scraping the bottom of the barrel now. They are touting Garth Paltridge as their latest weapon against the Alarmists.

I wonder how many of them have actually read anything that he has said - aside from the cover blurbs of course?

I haven't read his book. I have read extracts from it, have listenedd to him talking on the ABC, watched him on YouTube and read a few letters to papers he has written.
