Stijn!!

I think there is a sliding scale. 1000 bucks will have someone looking in a day. 50 bucks or less most folks figure it is gone, so just a couple of days.

I'm thinking the reasonable wait for owner to claim a lost item is two weeks. Places like libraries, schools, and airports that have longer wait periods, up to 60 days typically give any unclaimed valuables (including cash) to charity not the finder.

Was it that, uh, er, $283 dollars I seemed to have uh misplaced? Yeah, that's it...I misplaced it. :-)

The fun's just begun. Behind the scenes, we are spending hours looking at video, pictures and talking about how to tackle each step. It's about to become difficult.

I say you bank it immediately, when/if someone calls, give it back.



Dave, you are quite the craftsman. I haven't been following your Gibson thread, but it looks like you're doing a good job!


For the rest, this day hasn't started well for me. I'm hoping it will pick up later on.
I was trying to get to know this girl, but she kept me at bay for so long.... We got into an argument about it and Ī guess the friendship is over now... Sucks

Yeah well, Īt's really F'ed up, but I can't really do much about it.
Funny thing is, I'm not even trying to start a relationship or anything. I don't even know what she looks like. It's like keeping a toy dangling just out of reach from a pet for too long, eventually it will loose interest. You shouldn't blame the pet for that.

Good morning fellas.

Back to the office. I am working on my second cup of coffee.

I am still trying to figure out several things on my iPhone 4. For some reason the contacts app is on a page all by itself and it does not want to be on the home screen.

I got the new wireless router and Apple TV working at my dad's house. He has an iMac and to get it to see the router I had to tell the iMac that it was in a new location. It is still in the same spot on the same desk in the same room but it was not going to play nice until I told it that it was in a new place with a router.

I would have never figured that out without a phone call to RKD. Thanks Richard!

With a PC it just sees the router and everything is easy, with a Mac you have to stroke it's ego and tell it that it is in a better or at least different place and to play nice with it's new friend, Mr. Router. Sheesh!

My MIL has an 5 year old PC that was a snap to set up with Apple TV.

Yeah it's just weird that a Mac sees a PPPoE connection as a completely different connection than Std Ethernet and all. Sounded like your location (network configuration set) only had the PPPoE interface configured and no std ethernet so it was easier to have you make a new location. A new location defaults to an ethernet, wireless, bluetooth, and firewire all with DHCP and no PPPoE.

Glad it worked for you.
