memory lane

Got an email from Ben today. Nice and kind Ben is helping me relocate my old life to my new life. He is helping me even though i am a lot of extra work he doesn't need and have a LOT of data!

He suggested i get putty and winscp up and running and have a look for some data i want. It isn't there because it is on the supercomputers tape system and needs a different login thing (which i can't do from home yet). But still I had the weirdest time...

once i go it all going it going i started to trawl through my file directories. It was unsettlin'.

What i can't figure out is why did i not leave myself notes??

It would have help so much. just a little one saying "this directory contain such and such and you wrote all this code to do something dead set important"

It is going to take me sometime to go through ALL my old code...but you just can't throw
things out...you never know when you will need them. LUCKY for me i was totally anal about writing what every piece of code was for and any re-writes/problems.

great day.

It sure beats having to write anything and yet you still get the feeling that you have achieved something!
