Avoid schools today.

The network at work is pretty well hosed. Think somebody must've hacked into the DNS servers or overloaded 'em. But while everybody else is wandering the hallways with vacant stares, I'm happily clicking away. How can that be? Well, I don't need DNS to get to my home machine, I know the address. And since it runs a real operating system I can tunnel a running program through it. Like Netscape. And its DNS servers are running (as opposed to yesterday when they weren't). A little slow, but it works. Visibly there's no indication that the program is now running seven miles away on a working network segment. Looks just the same.
