Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Yep.

And lest this be a narsty one-word post,

A hearty thank you to all who worked so hard to figure out our usage problem(s), and did the necessary to fix it, plus coached the rest of us on how to lessen our power demands on the board. Alla you guys both rock and rule!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yay, Kristen & Monique! Yay, ita! Yay, Buffistas!

I'm glad things look good, and that the pressure is off. (That's correct, correct? Our max connection level is 50 and we're at 30, and so, good?) I'll still be looking through the code in case there are some things we can clean up.

But anyway, what a difference a cooperative and helpful host makes, eh?

Yes, please do. Now that we're in a good place, I'd like to start looking ahead and planning for the board's future. Which brings me to...

Do we have a punchlist or something of features we wanted to implement down the road? I thought there was one but now I can't find it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Am Chau is the keeper of the list, Kristen. And I haven't seen her around recently.

I don't have a copy with me here at work, but the latest version is definitely upthread. Somewhere.

Okay, cool. I'll suck and search.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I didn't get that joke until I was 20 or 21. I am a dolt.

I didn't realize it was a joke to get until you said that just now.

FanTAStic news about our new, improved server usage, btw.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

Wonderful news!

I think rather than returning the RQG to its former state, we should (as Jon B., I think, suggested) set up a cron job to change the quote daily. That way, we don't get sick of the "Woodstock" quote but there's no "I'm just hitting refresh to cycle through the quotes" usage either.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Huzzah! And thanks, Kristen, Monique, and assorted host/server guys I don't know for having the time and patience to help us sort through this properly.

would someone explain it to this maroon?

I wonder if the RQG was resposible for leaking MySQL connections? Anyone with the source code want to take a look and see?
