  1. I use AVG (cleans up and then runs in the background, free package at first, then pay for full service) + Spybot, a free package that the user has trigger. Both suggested by professional computer chappie at work.

     

    Sympathies to Flash - seems like only yesterday that he posted his first computer whinge on Nanapong - I'll commiserate with a drink at Woodstock later tonight.

     

    [Er ... something not quite right here....]

  2. On what criteria were the universities assessed? - The ranking is meaningless without that information.

    EG:

    Research output in peer-reviewed journals?

    External assessment of courses/teaching/examinations?

    Assesment by discipline (not spanking, Flash - by course subjects) - even the best unies have some crap departments and vice versa.

  3. I remember TLR very well. It was a good place to meet whoever was in town. It had a "naughty boy room" in the back, and apparently some of the gals working there were illegals (Lao or Cambodian). I'd bent elbows often enough with Graham. Last I heard of him, he was hiding out from people he'd borrowed money from. I know he owed one Ponger about 200,000 baht.

     

    Wasn't the money owed to *NYS* repaid after a rather large Nanapong moderator from Scotland paid a call on Graham? I don't think the young guy ever saw his money again - just like our old pal Somchai?

     

    On a brighter note, Jools was the first Thai bar I visited on my inaugural visit in 1988. Fine establishment, with a very kind bartendee called Dao (Star). Happy days...
