All's quite on the Western Font

I don't have too much to report right now, but I figured I should put in something just for fun. The new session has started up and all we are going to be doing is post-production on the films we made last month, so this should be fairly easy with a low amount of work :).

Also just as a side note I am now a great humanitarian because of this new application I downloaded for my Playstation. All I need to do is run this program, then the system goes almost idle, basically all you as the owner can do while it's running is either, turn it off, look at a world map which has dots for every PS3 in the world (there are three locations in India by the way for those loyal fans of this award winner blog who may or may not live in India), or nothing at all. What the Playstation does however when you run this program is it sends internet signals (I believe) to this medical company which gives a boost to their research to cure all forms of Cancer. In other words, by me running this program not only am I making my electricity bill go up, but I'm also helping to cure cancer.

Is that like that Folding @ Home program you can download? It's similar but it uses the processing power of computers and Playstations to perform simulations of folding proteins. I don't know all the technical mumbo-jumbo, but the idea is the same. You leave your console on, and the program does the good work.

What is it called? I must know.

If you're talking about mine, it's called Folding @ Home. But you probably aren't.

No mine's called Folding @ Home too.

And you should really get it David, FINALLY you will have a use to your laptop... That is of course if you can even run it.
