Post by: Andy on March 13, 2008, 11:44:00 PM

I've been sitting in an ICU for the last 3 days.  FOT forum is the only thing that made it bearable.

with out getting too sappy, this is a really special group of people.

thanks, everyone.

Jeez, Andy, hope you're OK and/or that you feel better very soon.  I'm happy all this fun time-wasting is doing some good in the world.

just to clarify, I'm in the ICU with my mother in law, who had emergency valve replacement tuesday morning.  it was touch and go yesterday, but she appears to be stable and improving.

My mom had the same surgery.  Two years later she says she's never felt better.

All my best, hoss.

If you need another diversion, check out this stuff about Gantt charts on Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gantt_chart). Who know those guys had a name?

Yeah we wish our contractors used them more. Check the article on that guy Henry Gantt: "he also designed the 'task and bonus' system of wage payment and additional measurement methods worker efficiency and productivity".

I hope your Mother in Law pulls through, Andy. Let them know that some guy on the other side of the country is routing for you.
