When I was a child in upstate NY, there was The Cider Mill; you could see them pressing the cider out of the apples, and we'd buy a jug along with some doughnuts. Later, they turned it into a theater. I've not been back there since my father died, so I don't know if they still press cider. > the overall lack of enthusiasms for anything much in the way > of programming was the desire to avoid sitting at some desk job > for too long and i managed to avoid that by doing a part-time > librarian job instead. part-time gardener fits very nicely now > instead. I do a fair amount of sitting in my job, but I also have to go to transmitter sites and the like, so I get a fair amount of exercise just from my work. One of the more challenging sites is a place called Green Mountain, which despite its name is not in Vermont but New Hampshire. It's about a mile and a half walk up to the top, and takes a lot out of me, but the view from there is spectacular. > those are pretty amazing little gadgets. i've never > had one in my hands to even look at it let alone do any > work with one. i hope it went ok! :) The Pi works beautifully as a streaming encoder when coupled with a USB audio interface. It's a good machine to leave at a transmitter site, too, as it doesn't have any moving parts other than the optional fan. umar
