Given our recent troubles, Alan and I decided to experiment with a different format: Instant Messaging (aka Chat). Hopefully the greater interactivity of our “chatalogue” will help keep us on track.
I am blogging our initial chat, below, purely to help me refine my “transcript reformatter” script, to provide an appropriate online record. I may delete it later, since it contains no useful information…
Chatalogue Key:
E: (bold) Ernie Prabhakar
A: (italic) Alan Lund
E: Hey, it works!
A: Howdy!
A: Are you still at work, then?
E: Yeah.
E: Though, it is a quiet afternoon.
A: You almost missed me. I am about ready to leave.
E: Okay, I’ll try again in a couple hours.
E: Talk to you then.
A: OK, see ya.
E: bye
