Indeed one does not have to wait till formal bullshit happens (because many 
geeks fail to  memorize or play formal social code). Ofcourse a little
reference of
social network always helps, specially if one does not join the tech talk.

I would have loved to see that documentary. Especially with the project I'm 
working on now.

Yes, we are now in cyberspace. Were technic was 20 years ago despite
emancipation efforts still male dominated, with computer science a new
equal area came to existance. Step by step time learns on which aspect
average (not all) women do perform better then men and vice versa. To me I
would hope that cyber feminism keeps the door open to all computer aspects
for all women. (I don't wanna hear in ten years time that I better do
design a GUI cause I'm a women. Just like I don't like to hear that I have
to design a web site cause I'm a women). So maybe here and now is the right
moment for a Hal apetizer; UTP, ext2, nfs, 128-bit encryption, address bus
width, dual flipflop, smd, port scanning.  

>Please Ladies, draw a bike.

My favorite subject;. Can I maybe see the images?
(maybe I will have some Hal tent space left for a small exhibition)
