Been busy with local stuff...still missing a dogsled, but no worries...

I agree, Citronick. I was also previously with Slush for some time, although I also delved into a couple of others just out of curiosity. What I've noticed on this thread lately (reading through the last few days that I essentially missed) is that the pool's popularity, and perhaps a spot price around the Kuiper Belt, seems to have attracted new miners (a good thing) who can perhaps benefit from some Zen-based support (only half-kidding). We've all been there at some time or another.

OT can be fun occasionally, but we have to know when to hold 'em as well.
