'... we need better predictive tools to plot the speed at which new technologies will spread. Spreadsheet gymnastics by 20-something b-school graduates should not dictate our investment decisions. We can produce better predictions. We have the data - from decades of technology innovation.

Mashing together to separate feeds to create and exhibit of google spreadsheet and rss-to json source.
I should have done the analysis for this financial year's budget some time ago, but suddenly it's the first of Feb and I need to get it sorted pronto, especially since I won't have time to look at it in the office until the end of next week.
There goes my evening then.

As I was working on a TMP defect spreadsheet to outline our work for the next week [that has grown enormously because of the snow...] I noticed a cut of motors coming toward the fuel truck. As it turns out, it was led by the Boy Scout motor that had finally made it into the very busy yard.

Spreadsheet: Parks # (hidden, historic, unmarked, abandoned for 100 years, but definitely super interesting and still part of Franklin Park Zoo despite being far from it)
It's amazing what staring at Excel spreadsheets all day can do to your eyes. Kind of ironic that I rushed home from work to make sure I didn't miss the new episode of The Office too. It's like inmates rushing back to their cell to watch Oz or COPS. I actually still have work to do.
