The "ASIC team" is "expecting" 40 chips for testing on Friday. But there's a sticky on the shoutbox about how 21 - 30 cm of snow will "paralyse BFL's location" and BFL StevenM said that half the staff are working remotely today. It looks like BFL will literally be able to blame the weather for the next delay they're going to inevitably announce.
This is too good to refrain from posting. They're going to blame it on Q (Storm Q, it is dubbed).

Is the new #1 in reference to the cat or that jacked up pillow looking thing that kinda looks like from the side like Stephen King's "It" ...Scurry
Obviously, it's the 'droid. Makes me wonder if the Droid would have been a better #1 than Riker? Wonder no more! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUnec-ni9-Q

What are the chances of Josh coming to Chicago in the next couple days to check on the status of BFL's chips? If he is, and let's us know prior, we can meet at some upper-end restaurant and buy him dinner.

Nice plan Phinnaus; you, Goat and Maria on a farm declaring sovereignty under the 10th amendment. It's almost biblical.
It's a start, but needs some natural disasters, murder, sodomy, etc stirred in. I have the sodomy aspect covered. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

That's crazy. I remember when we reached parity with the $USD. That was exciting enough.
And I got in when it was trying to reach it again, albeit from the opposite direction. And to think I thought copper cents were a good investment with only 200% margin. Today's market cap is only ~$300M. For Bitcoin to truly be on the radar, it would need a market cap of at least $10B. If it reaches that plateau with 16M bitcoins mined, that would make each bitcoin valued at $625 USD--another ~21X jump. Then I'll be able to retire on my goat ranch with Maria. EDIT: More math: $1T market cap with if all coins mined (21M bitcoins) equates to $47,619.04 USD each. I'm willing to bet that Roger Ver has that equation pinned on all four walls in his office.

Why are there so few massacres at police stations or military bases ?
Let me answer that question with some other questions: - If armies cause massacres, why are there so few massacres at military bases?
- If explosives cause massacres, why are there so few massacres at open cut coal mines?
- If socially awkward loners cause massacres, why are there so few massacres at Comicon?
- If religious intolerance causes massacres - oh wait, that one doesn't work.
- If oil doesn't... (damn, I need to find another example also)

Why don't they say that in public? Like i say 'POOR COMMUNICATIONS/WHITE LIES'. I know of no business that secretly sends info out to their fanbois only.
Actually, there was a public post made saying that 53 units had been shipped and that if they didn't make it out of China prior to 2 February then they wouldn't arrive at their destination until after CNY. That post implied that they wouldn't ship any more units until they knew everything had gone OK with those units (they said they'd used a different route, but didn't elaborate). If they've been assembling the units themselves, there's no reason why assembly couldn't have continued throughout the holiday period. Two Chinese vendors I use are resuming shipping today - the question is whether Avalon will ship any units they've assembled during the holiday period ASAP or whether they'll wait until they know the batch of 53 already shipped have been delivered without problems (because you really don't want to use that method with larger quantities until you know there are no problems with it). Avalon have never regarded themselves as accountable to anyone other than their customers and have tended to communicate with them directly rather than through the forums. It's a different business model than BFL's and you can't really compare the two. A company of 22 people which has a dedicated customer service team (as BFL claims to have) should definitely be able to provide something better than "probably by June" in response to customer questions about when they'll receive their order - and should be capable of answering 500 emails if that's what it takes to keep customers informed (what do their customer service team at BFL actually do all day if they don't have time to respond to emails). In re. 500 emails: My sister works for an outfit (Rassah knows which one) that ships products to convenience stores like 7-11. She recently got promoted from being on the floor to an office-type position scheduling the fleet of drivers. I asked her how many emails she handles a day in that capacity. She said 2-3 hundred, of which she said she could handle more, for she's bored shitless and prefers to be back on the floor where it's more challenging, albeit pays less. I asked her how she does it, and she said it's easy. I answer all that I know the answer to, and the ones I don't, I know which person should know the answer and pass the email to them. She also said a couple times she's sent to an incorrect person, but they relayed the email to correct department to make sure the concern is addressed properly. And my sister's an idiot! Not in the derogatory sense, but knowing her command of the English language, making the classical mistakes we've all seen here (allot, their/there/they're, etc.). Yet, she handles the position well enough, allowing the system to function properly. Out of the pool of people wanting the position, she was the most qualified. Now, if I'm not mistaken, there's no less than 6 people doing customer service at BFL. 500 emails a day divided by 6 people is... Divide that by 8 hours, and you have... Again, not a diss, and did not take the time to proofread this post. ~Bruno K~

I've sent three e-mails so far, with no response. I don't want to wait until April or may to receive my unit, but most importantly my 4 year old son has been diagnosed with Leukemia! Treatment isn't cheap,,,, I'm gonna have to take out a second mortgage and it still won't cover the costs. I need my $1,333 refunded ASAP. Please. Also, I'm not really one to ask people for anything, but my son's life is at stake here. If any of you would be so kind enough to send me donations to help pay for treatment, I would greatly appreciate it and never forget the assistance I may receive. ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) Sorry, I'm just an emotional wreck right now and I need to vent!! ![Cry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cry.gif) I'm sure Josh or Jody will be right on top of this first thing tomorrow, bud. Hang tight. I'll even PM Josh for you with a link to this thread. Later, bud. ~Bruno K~

Done. Tell me if anything is broken.
I think I broke my penis. I went through three shadow goats during the course of BT being down. Next time PM me, for what if three weren't enough? Seems to be runnin' smoothly. Great job, theymos! Later, bud. ~Bruno K~
