    Am not actually doing the data mapping myself, I just help now and again... I used to do all this techie hard stuff, and didn't get paid a lot for it, now the stuff I do is no where close on the difficulty or risk side - I just arrange and attend numerous meetings/workshops etc (i.e. I just talk all day, have lunches with people etc) and I get paid more for it !!

    Just a sideline technology on the project.
    Ask Hopper if he wants to off load his current set of Maps and Trees to you, then he'll have more time for his SKA.

    ... I found the first half of that doc your woking on on the printer this morning ...

    Obviously, my saying, only pages x to x + 50, with the revision marks, have changed didn't mean anything.

    I have a test spec to do next. That should be good for a 100 pages or so.

    Whoops, forgot to say that with the last document. Oh well, ******* contactors.

    no not yours far too short, only about 60 pages, now where is your 600 pager?

    I found the first half of that doc your woking on on the printer this morning. Looks like someone printed out the bit's we are not looking at. Oh well only 100 sheets of A4 for the incinerator.
