It seems like it. Well, hey Bill, great to hear your voice. And I was doing some things around the house and I noticed the time and I figured I should turn on the radio and see what's going on on the net. I'm a bachelor this weekend, so I've been just doing projects in the garage and around the house. But one thing I did this morning is I went to the Mike and T monthly meeting and I didn't drive down there this time. I decided to join via Zoom. It was an interesting meeting. We had a presentation by the Long Island CW Club and I've been interested in learning CW for a long time. So it helped motivate me to maybe try to pick that back up again. But the folks from that club gave an interesting talk about sort of the motivation of why they teach CW in the way that they do and kind of an interesting story. And it includes doing their own translation of some German World War II era papers that were written by, I think, Koch. I think it is the guy who came up with the method that they adopted, which is a name that I had heard before with regards to CW, but I didn't really know much about it. But anyway, it was an interesting start to the day and a good presentation this morning with the Mike and T Club. And they often have good presentations and they're really good about hosting their meetings in kind of a hybrid format where it's pretty easy if you don't want to drive down to Auburn, you can catch them on Zoom. So I enjoyed that. But other than that, tried out a new pizza place last night. Had some really good pizza and I ate leftovers for two meals today. And earlier this week I made Manhattan style clam chowder for the first time. And so that was my dinner. And I have to say I was pretty impressed by how it came out. My first attempt at making something that was kind of a staple of my childhood growing up in New Jersey, but something I'd never attempted to make at home. So all in all, a really good day. And again, great to hear from you. And I am looking forward to getting a Cuban sandwich at Ujamaa Food Court tomorrow. Sorry, not tomorrow, but Monday. So yeah, looking forward to that. But back to you, Bill. Thanks for hosting the net. This is Jeff and Queen Anne, W6OHM. Jeff Today and tomorrow called STEAM, S-H-T-E-A-M. And it's some sort of art combined with Maker Faire, combined with history, combined with everything down at the Georgetown STEAM plant. And the name of the event is STEAM. So it's like science, history, technology, electronics, art. Anyway, it was just a very eclectic, interesting thing. So if anybody wants to do something kind of strange tomorrow, you'll find it on, if you Google it. And if you've never been to the Georgetown STEAM plant, do go. It is this, oh, I guess it was built in the 20s and 30s maybe. And it just has all this ancient equipment in there, you know, decommissioned. But it's just a really weird place. So you might enjoy it. All right. With all of that blather, maybe a few more people want to join us for round two. This is K7WFD. Come ahead with your call, sign, and name.
