- had planned on posting a misc tips page, a cardboard r.p.d.o mini, the CAD files we've been sent but not able to use yet in case someone else can make use of them, pictorial of fess' first ramp. and get further on the R.P.D.O. mini II plans. However some spammers sent out tens of thousands of emails pretending to be from one of the domains we control, and all the bounces and hate mail took down our servers. Spent 8 hours yesterday cleaning that up. that's not skating or ramp building, as if we weren't short enough on time. Damn spammers. Maybe we'll get to it during the week.
