It seems that some of my friends want to be there but are afraid that will be too much about programming and using coleco computer or game system. Can you assure them in a sense by describing in your words what is an Adamcon convention? rich-c: Daniel, when I went to look at the ccjvg website for the poster, McAfee Site Adviser put up a red warning Daniel Bienvenu: I know, McAfee doesn't like ccjvq web site. I don't know why Judy: write this up where? rich-c: well, I sent them a nasty email about it

changed username to Roberto Roberto: Allo der!!!!!!!!!! rich-c: well, Roberto, about time you got here! Roberto: si senor Guy B.: Hi Bob Judy: he is busy you know Roberto: how's Chicago????????? rich-c: I haven't been able to look at the spreadsheet yet, we don't have anything to read it with on our email machine Roberto: busy bys bsy Roberto: busy Daniel Bienvenu: typing too fast... I know, I'm trying sometimes to say many things at once and get lost in my words and mistype them. Guy B.: Oh, while I have you all here. Jeanene is having knee surgery on March 2nd. She's having cartilage removed. The left knee will be first, the right will come later Guy B.: Too much snow. Got 12.9 inches last week Daniel Bienvenu: So, Rich, you can't open the file provided by the hotel. So you don't know what is written. Daniel Bienvenu: Bob told me about a date mistake, so I know he was able to open the document rich-c: oh, I opened the letter from the hotel, that's basically in text and wordpad handled it rich-c: but I have been busy and read it but did not study it particularly rich-c: does it red the same in French and English? I only saw the English Daniel Bienvenu: if I remember correctly, the hotel is aksing us to fill up and sign basically the document very very soon, before next wednesday. rich-c: you actually got some snow, did you, Guy? not that that is unusual for Chicago in February rich-c: well there are one or two issues to be dealt with, Daniel Guy B.: Let's say we broke a record for the most one day snowfall for the month of February. The old one was 11.5 back in 1908. rich-c: they do not say anything about meeting rooms, for instance rich-c: or handicap or disabled rooms Guy B.: Bad enough I had back problems for two days last week. Snow didn't help either as I had to dig out my car Guy B.: Annie seemed to enjoy the snow rich-c: or allowing extra room-nights to extend pre-or post-bloc times at the same price rich-c: and teh time should be 32 room-nights not the 28 they offer rich-c: oh, all of this came down at once, Guy? you didn't mention that rich-c: but almost all dogs just love to get out in the snow rich-c: we actually have visible snow on the lawns today, but not much Daniel Bienvenu: actually, the document is only about the rooms, it's another person and so another contract for the meeting room. Daniel Bienvenu: at the phone I've insisted about the special bathrooms for you, and Jean if she's coming too, but yes it's not mentionned in the document. rich-c: doing separate contracts, are they? anyway, maybe you should explain I'm acting as treasurer for you and give them my name, address, email and phone rich-c: you realize, Daniel, there are different needs between handicapped and disabled folks? Daniel Bienvenu: Well, I did talk about our treasurer (tresorier) by phone and by email, but of course I didn't give any information yet. rich-c: you have my permission to do so. Do you need my phone and email? Daniel Bienvenu: yes, please. Guy B.: Oh yes Rich. Last Wednesday rich-c: what sort of back problems are you having, Guy? Daniel Bienvenu: You talked to me about bathrooms... is there another thing that I was supposed to take care of for you? Daniel Bienvenu: I mean, I did call the hotel, this one seems good enough for our needs... but if I did miss something, please tell me. rich-c: you have already checked and found they have handicap parking, Daniel Daniel Bienvenu: How should we work for the paiement at the hotel? each one giving a credit card or only the treasurer credit card is implied and paid 7 days in advance? Roberto: you are doing GREAT Daniel..........don't get flustered.......it will all work out !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-) Daniel Bienvenu: sorry if I'm explaining badly rich-c: well, advance payments and such are my problem, not yours, Daniel rich-c: I have said I will look aftrer the money and I will Daniel Bienvenu: I'm reading the document at the same time so I'm just asking because they give a choice. rich-c: since I can handle foreign exchange easier than any of the others, it only makes sense Roberto: Richard will take care of tall the monies Daniel.......... Roberto: and he is GOOD at it,,,,,,,,,just like you are good at getting the convention planned !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-) :-) Daniel Bienvenu: another thing here... I've asked to get rooms close to the meeting room so our noise of the saturday night will not affect the others who are sleeping. rich-c: not really - Frances is good at it - she's the genie behind the curtain rich-c: I just make the big noise out front rich-c: what are the rules on smoking in Quebec hotels, Daniel Roberto: :-) that's a good one Richard Judy: everyone has to have their job Daniel Bienvenu: I knew I've forgot something. rich-c: if it matters, I believe Pamela is the only smoker in our group now but will want a smoking room if they have them Daniel Bienvenu: Well, smoking is not allowed inside public buildings like hotel, shoping malls, and so on. I think there are exceptions, but I can't think of any. Judy: smoking is not allowed in a lot of places now days Roberto: well then pam will have to puff OUTDOORS Daniel Bienvenu: Well, I can phone back the hotel tomorrow about a smoker room. rich-c: some places make an exception for hotel bedrooms, others do not. I think Quebec does not. Daniel Bienvenu: well, fire and beds are not good friends Roberto: correct Daniel !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11 Daniel Bienvenu: did she tried nicotine patches or gums? rich-c: Daniel, don't go there. She chooses to smoke and does not welcome comments rich-c: Guy, sorry, you never had a chance to tell us what's wrong with your back Daniel Bienvenu: I'm not commenting about her decision of smoking... just saying that there are possibilities if she should not smoke but feel the need to.

Like I've said earlier tonight, some of my friends are afraid that it's just about coleco programming and geek stuff like modifying hardware. Meeka: well at this point it is more like a famikly reunion to me rich-c: Guy, tell them it is a meeting of friends more like a family reunion rich-c: it is just that our common interest is a computer, not the links of blood rich-c: sorry, meant that last for Dasniel - having senior moments here Judy: A convention is a meeting of friends to compare notes on how to do computer things and talk about whatever comes up Daniel Bienvenu: what do you except while going at the adamcon? having a good time, seeing again everybody, but what else? rich-c: tell them we talk about what interests us, Daniel - which may or may not have much to do with Adam Roberto: ADAMCON is a meeting of FRIENDS; discussing and hands on with ADAM, ColecoVision, IBM. Programming, games, fun times, online chats....etc rich-c: if we get a bunch of game programmers show up, they will get the chance to talk shop if they wish rich-c: after all, you are in charge of the schedule - ask them what they want Meeka: it also somehow seems to be a meeting of minds to fix some problem Daniel Bienvenu: I remember Neil talked about how CSS can change the look of a web page, and Jillian (or Pam?) did a presentation about Facebook rich-c: yes, someone was willing to talk about those things so they did rich-c: give him a hint and Dale will talk about almost anything, so will Dr. D. to some extent Roberto: we can have sessions about almost ANYTHING Daniel Bienvenu: I want to try somethin. I'll throw a subject of a possible presentation and get your feedback about if you think you'll like to heard about this subject at the adamcon. rich-c: just so they know we are not fluent in Franch the way you are in English Roberto: really should be computer related... maybe Roberto: french???????? whas that ??????? rich-c: a more sophisticated dialect of Spanish, Robert Roberto: these are your programming ColecoVision buddies, yes??????? Roberto: oh OK richard !!!!! Daniel Bienvenu: There is a phenomena going on about Hama Beads, like making a drawing pixel by pixel as a decoration and gamers seems to love it to make videogame characters Daniel Bienvenu: but it's physical, not virtual Daniel Bienvenu: like playing with lego rich-c: never heard of it but maybe I should hear and see something

Pamela: among other things Daniel Bienvenu: Question to Pamela : Do you know what is "hama beads"? Pamela: no idea Daniel Pamela: is this a quiz? Daniel Bienvenu: no Pamela: I lost an hour to an unplanned snooze : ( rich-c: they seem to be a physical toy something like Lego Pamela: so what are they Daniel? Daniel Bienvenu: if you do a search with "hama beads" you'll find this new thing going on, a phenomena gaining in popularity Pamela: hmmm Daniel Bienvenu: particulary for gamers, retrogamers rich-c: from the name, a Japanese toy Daniel Bienvenu: the idea is to put side by side colored *things* on a plate and these *things* stick together. and you can use them to decorate. Pamela: where did you come across them? Daniel Bienvenu: the plate don't stay there, it's just a grid, a guide Daniel Bienvenu: well, many friends, all gamers, love playing with those and decorate their "gaming room". Daniel Bienvenu: you can have a pacman in hama beads, a donkey kong in hama beads. it's like a lego way to do art with pixels but for real, not in a computer. Daniel Bienvenu: just google it, you'll see Pamela: sorta like live Logo? Guy B.: Ok back Pamela: hi Guy Pamela: speaking of Lego, how's Fallingwater coming Dad? Daniel Bienvenu: Well Pam, if I was asking this is because I was doing a kind of survey to see the reaction about subjects my friends my bring at the convention if they want to participate and talk. Daniel Bienvenu: *may bring Pamela: sounds interesting Daniel rich-c: not sure, Pam Daniel Bienvenu: Another subject can be I think the presentation of the videogame collectors group I'm part of, and I did a Coleco game last year to celebrate their 10th anniversary. Judy: Hi, Pam rich-c: oh, just to resolve an issue, did the hotel in Hull have smoking rooms? Pamela: Hi Judy Daniel Bienvenu: Hull (Gatineau?) Pamela: that's also a good idea Daniel Pamela: yes it did rich-c: yes, that's what I meant, Daniel, Pam would remember Pamela: why? Daniel Bienvenu: Well, Pam, I didn't asked if there was bedrooms for smokers rich-c: would you like one this time round if it's available? Daniel Bienvenu: I was so focused about bathrooms and cost Daniel Bienvenu: so now we did think of this detail Daniel Bienvenu: I'm sorry to forgot to ask this Daniel Bienvenu: *to forget Daniel Bienvenu: laws here tend to make any public area "smoke free"... so I'll call back the hotel and see if they have bedrooms for smokers. Daniel Bienvenu: 1..2.. test Roberto: 3....4....test back Meeka: i here rich-c: yes, they have an 800 line, don't they? so you can call free any time Roberto: HA gotcha !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111 Daniel Bienvenu: the silence was not supportable rich-c: well I had to go get my beer Daniel Bienvenu: Meeka ? I was sure you was away. Judy: I have tea Roberto: watching Limpics!!!!! Pamela: sorry, stepped away for a minute Roberto: Canada got at least TWO golds already Pamela: Daniel, if they have smoking rooms fine, but if not its no big deal rich-c: Frances likes tea, so we have tea for dinner Pamela: don't go out of your way to worry about it Pamela: brb Judy: is Meeka's favorite, Orange rich-c: did you hear about our Post Office's Olympic coup? Roberto: no Daniel Bienvenu: so, they there is at least one available smoking room, you would like to have it. So, I should ask if there is any Daniel Bienvenu: *so, if there is... rich-c: all in secret they designed an Olympic stamp with a gold medal on it Roberto: take it for Pam Roberto: COOL Daniel Bienvenu: See? I keep mixing up words and mistype totally Roberto: so order some from your mailman rich-c: they printed them in secret and held them in secure parts of post office branches Judy: join the crowd, Daniel Daniel Bienvenu: Ok, I'll throw another possible subject. Roberto: I GOT IT !!! I caought it !!!! rich-c: the instant Canada won the first gold, they announced and released them Roberto: and the tshirt shops are going overtime to make shirts too prolly Judy: we are watching the olympics now Pamela: it's not often I get a chance to praise the Post Office : ) Daniel Bienvenu: There is a person who can draw nicely on about any surface and for the occasion of a videogame meeting she likes to bring items with videogame characters on them. Roberto: too much cross country skiing and NOT ENOUGH downhill skiing Pamela: like I said Daniel, it's not a huge deal rich-c: no, Olympic merchandise is very tightly controlled, everything has to be approved Roberto: that sounds neat Daniel Judy: sounds good, Daniel have her come Daniel Bienvenu: I'll try to convince her then Daniel Bienvenu: very talented person
(Guy B. hands a diet coke to Pamela.) Pamela: 10 Q Judy: yes, do that rich-c: long as we dont have to buy lunch for a mob, we're delighted to have them Daniel Bienvenu: err what? rich-c: 10Q = merci Daniel Bienvenu: you want to play 10 questions? Roberto: the mob has to put up some $$$$ too Richard Pamela: it's starting to smell like cookies in here rich-c: as in buy their own dinner and chip in on the metting room?

Judy: we made some right after supper, Pam Roberto: ah Pam, we did the same thing with some cookies....CHOCOLATE CHIP rich-c: of course, you want to be part of the event you have to buy a ticket, so to speak Daniel Bienvenu: I have questions for women here. Did any of you did make a presentation at least once during an ADAMCon convention? And what was the subject(s)? Meeka: I made some this afternoon too Meeka: yes rich-c: Frances did a couple of sessions on Logo years ago Meeka: mom and I did adambomb one year Roberto: Pam talked about tweeter and Spacebook Meeka: and I think I did a 10 or 15 min one about archiving pictures when I originally set up my site rich-c: that's a game, third party supergame, Daniel Daniel Bienvenu: I know what is LOGO. I think I've a picture of me somewhere from my childhood of me using LOGO on a computer. Daniel Bienvenu: (missing a coma) Roberto: LOGO was ...and is.....a greatr kids learning tool, I just never got into it too far Daniel Bienvenu: (or two) Pamela: not tweeter Bob, just Facebook Roberto: oh ok, Jillian did Tweeter ????? rich-c: Logo on the Adam is very good and well adapted to writing games, too Pamela: maybe - can't remember Daniel Bienvenu: are you sure it's not Twitter? Pamela: I am, so to speak, multitasking Pamela: be back soon Roberto: probably, but who has time for those modern things........we need sleep.....us elderly folks Judy: especially this week Daniel Bienvenu: Can I presume and everybody here did make a presentation during an ADAMCon? rich-c: hey, young feller, back off that - that's my schtick! Roberto: we sick........got the cruds...in the nose and head Daniel Bienvenu: *presume that everybody... Daniel Bienvenu: (I keep mixing words and typing too fast) Judy: I am trying to cough my head off Roberto: FARN DINGERS, huh ?????? rich-c: oh yes, over 22 years we've all been drafted one time or another rich-c: you can even still see some of my pep talks on Dr. D's website, I think Judy: Bob and I took a Adam apart and put it back together again Daniel Bienvenu: cool Meeka: ya, that was a slopsema vs slopsema cpontest Daniel Bienvenu: how long it takes? Meeka: we had to do it too Roberto: contest that PAM got us into..........someone took an ADAM apart, and 2 teams competed to put the ADAM's back together with NO extra parts or screws Meeka: nooooo Roberto: about 15 minutes or so rich-c: oh, I think it killed half an hour or so, didn't it? Meeka: we had to take apart and then put back together Roberto: did we take them apart also?????? Meeka: yup rich-c: yes, the taking apart was a bit of a challenge, too Roberto: Richard, you have to get aprize and a game for the Mighty Mitchell award.......don't forget rich-c: I think I ended up as an odd man out on that, DQ for lack of tools or something Daniel Bienvenu: prizes... the lottery... I knew I did forgot something rich-c: ouch, I had forgotten - keep me reminded, Robert; I am out of ingenuity, too Roberto: look at your clock and think Richard.......

Pamela: it's a lot easier when it's not your money : ) Daniel Bienvenu: if you want I can ask for what they may offer for lunch.

Pamela left chat session Daniel Bienvenu: and YOU are the ones who think of the questions, I tend to forget. rich-c: OK Daniel, don't worry, remember what I told you earlier rich-c: if everybody finked and I had to cover the cost of the convention - I could rich-c: so leave the money to me, you are protected - OK? Daniel Bienvenu: Yes, I do understand this. you're the money guy. rich-c: most important - you are protected, you will not get hurt financially rich-c: if there is a loss I will see that it is covered rich-c: just do not do anything dumb or irresponsible Daniel Bienvenu: they expect to be paid for 32 nights even if we need less than that... it's what the contract said. rich-c: that is my problem not yours - you forget about it Daniel Bienvenu: the rest is a bunch of things like, don't bring food in the meeting room, draw on walls, or destroy the vending machine, etc. Daniel Bienvenu: I think we are ok rich-c: I will likely just pay for teh 32 nights myself then collect from the others rich-c: I have both US and Canadian dollar bank and charge card accounts so it is very easy for me to handle money from two countriesd Daniel Bienvenu: I wonder why Dale wasn't there tonight Daniel Bienvenu: goodnight rich-c: who knows - maybe away on business, maybe Jeffy needed attention, maybe Jill wanted attention - who knows? rich-c: bonsoir, Daniel - dormez confortable Daniel Bienvenu: vous aussi rich-c: colour ne gone
