4/04    Is there a good way to diff 2 files that consist of columns of
        floating point numbers, such that it only tells me if there's a
        difference if the numbers on a given line differ by at least a given
        ratio?  Say, 1%?

5/17    Anyone have the guts to short Facebook out of the gate?  I think it's
        overvalued, but at this point it looks like there are enough
        suckers to float this castle in the air for quite a while
        \_ I don't think you can find the shares to short yet. I am long
           personally, but only with 200 shares. It is a moon shot kind of
           stock.

8/9     So I just found out that an old college friend of mine lost her
        four month old daughter to SIDS. What is the correct response here?

1/26    What's a good motherboard I can get that will fit in a 1U
        case, with sata connectors, gig-e ethernet, and lots of
        slots for RAM?  I also don't want to have to use expensive
        double buffered RAM.  Can you tell I havne't bought a PC in
        years?  thanks.
