Live on Riot.im. When we feel like it.              I had a few conversations with Jim Butterfield at a gathering in Louisville,       KY, and then again a year or two later in Chicago. He was pretty outgoing and       it seemed to me that he enjoyed all the attention he got. I thought he was       super charming. I        remember him giving a presentation, and it was pretty basic stuff. POKEing       BASIC into RAM and changing the keywords, etc. But he was amusing, and, hey,       it was Jim Butterfield. It was a highlight for me.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
