Other than that, a bit more code on the agenda for today.

I hope everyone has a great Saturday.
RaspberryPi is exciting. I can't wait to get one.

In Ontario, the Government is eliminating all coal powered plants. The result is that now 50% of our power comes from nuclear plants with the remainder natural gas, hydro and newable sources.
