Frost?
This morning, when I left for work, there was a hard frost and thick fog. Hmph.
Friday Savings Time
As Jeremy Zawodny has mentioned before, a great way to start the weekend early is Friday Savings Time. Go in early so that you can leave early. Beat the traffic, easy parking, good times. :)
Airlines and Bug Responsiveness
While developing FlightStats, I ran accross several bugs in the data I got from the Bureau of Transportation Systems. I reported the data to them, and got a quick response back (two weeks) that they had confirmed the bugs and asked the airlines to correct their reporting.
Did they? Yes! (Well, mostly. Grr, Southwest.)
