I don’t know how well this reflects on me.
As I was wondering idly when the delivery would arrive containing OGN5’s book lottery giveaways (thanks again, Friends of ED!) I started making a note of calendar dates for different bits of OGN organisation. I was working with Trac milestones at the time, so they were all in the format MM/DD/YY.
“Let’s see,” I thought, “today is 01/30/08; so the books should arrive hopefully on—let’s say—02/02/08. That means I’ve got the weekend plus a couple of days before OGN5, which is on….”
02/06/08. I stared at this date longer than I probably ought to, and noticed something about it. Can you spot what it might have been?
If so; if you’re like me and you read a date like “02/06/08″ and shortly afterwards think “2 plus 6 is 8″—just as an aid to memory, you understand; then you probably ought to join us at OGN5. We will understand.
