Oktoberfest photos and shoutouts

ByDerek

Sorry I didn’t get to this sooner, but I needed a bit of a break after Oktoberfest and the Bills game Sunday. I was glad to see so many of you fellow bloggers on Saturday! I got to meet a couple new ones, including Deeva from the 716 (whom I thank for introducing me to BubbleShare) and my “nemesis” Gabe! (his words not mine!) 🙂 I understand from reading Mr. In da Buff that there were quite a few more that I didn’t get the chance to meet, and I apologize. It was quite the busy night for us CTRCers and we needed to keep it running smoothly. Other than the temporary beer outage (damn you bloggers drink a lot!) it went really well! I’ll try to not be involved at all in the operation of the next one so I can sit around and just shoot the shit. In addition to those mentioned above, it was great to see Mike, Scotty, Kevin and Val, Alan, Elly, El Bloviator, Red, Jennifer, Amy, Michele, Marc, and of course, Mike! I missed Jen14221 and David Torke, about which I’m still bummed!

In most online communities, 90% of users are lurkers who never contribute, 9% of users contribute a little,…

Not everyone is taking it seriously

Thank God some people over at Buffalo Rising see through Tielman Park for what it is: This project can be just like the part of Main Street with out cars except… in the sky. Brilliant? Didn’t they have that look at the Embarcadero in SanFran when they stopped the building the elevated expressway. I don’t…

No doubt

ByDerek

And people wonder how anyone can doubt the “crisis” of global warming… The Washington Post reviews the work of top United Nations scientists, November 20: “The United Nations’ top AIDS scientists plan to acknowledge this week that they have long overestimated both the size and the course of the epidemic, which they now believe has…
