Simon Perry: Schemes, dreams & trivia

I heard on BBC Radio 4 today that BSE (Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy) has been discovered in Washington state.
The infection of the animal was detected on 9.Dec, it appears that only now is the news being released. It is understood that the meat from the animal is now in the human food chain. Its spinal cord […]

I’ve been using a fax to email service run by DM Club for a number of year. On the odd occasion that some _has_ to send me a fax, it enables me to receive faxes where ever I am, straight to my inbox as a DCX graphic. It functions well.
Luckily I don’t get too many […]

I had some dealings with Enron Broadband a few years ago. Their office was highly impressive with its plan view being a giant E. We wanted to get down to business, but the meeting with them was the most aimless, pointless one I’ve every attended. They droned on about their exclusive 30 year deal with […]

I was watching a TV program about cyberwarfare and Stephen Badsey from the Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst, UK claimed that “the world is four meals away from anarchy”. A great statement, but how true it is, I am not sure.
His presentation was very well balanced and considered, but digging around about him, I found […]
