Forced to reformat harddrive Stardate 83153.94

Hello all,

Two days ago I was forced to reformat my hard drivedue to a nasty spyware infection that I couldn't get under control. I have been slowly getting everything back up and running so please be patient with me. Luckily, I have lost very little data so I should be able to continue with the Spotlight on podcasts in a couple days. Sadly, I was forced to ditch most of my podcasts (to save space when I was backing up). While I have the feeds still running any of the old shows are gone. Sadly, I hadn't gotten a chance to look at the new podcasts I found to be able to recommend any of them yet. I will keep you posted on when I will start this up again.

Now to keep things interesting while I put my pc back together, why don't we have some fun? I want to hear from as much of the ship as possible. I will create a set of trivia questions (I will make them up tomorrow). They will vary in degree from pathetically easy to totally obscure. Once you are done, send me the answers to my email (don't share with the group) Once I get enough responses, we will start our game.

Basically, the game is "Who Knew It," which is just like street smarts; Click her for more info on the gameshow streetsmarts. I will give you a question (the ones of the questionnaire) and show you three people who responded to it. It is your job to figure out who got it right. Basically, in this stage you will shout out the answers through the group. After a couple days I will tell you who got it right.

This should keep us entertained until I am up and running again and who knows maybe when I get a new Chief of Trivia and Facts he/she will decide to run the game themselves. Well, thats it for now, cheers!
