Done nothing to PhD today I must write something about ethics. I emailed a chap Andy S. recommended A.E. at York who is doing something with maths for the blnd. An EU project. LAMBA see today's Guardian for job ad also York's home page Computing dept jobs.
Message today - move all files from local disk partitions c and d: to c:xpbackup
HAVE NOT STARTED THIS AS PARTITION TOO SMALL,
MESSAGE FROM IT: Move all stuff from C drive to backup folder and they will deal with the D partition.
Finished marking - endless spreadsheet erors - buts missing etc. finally done and dusted.
