- As I mentioned earlier, I keep a micro-cassette recorder around when I'm
- not in front of the keyboard for times when inspiration strikes. It takes
- just a little bit of getting used to, but then so does taking the notebook
- out and writing notes.
-
- Then, when I'm back at the computer(s), I transfer whatever notes I've got
- for the day/week/month. Since I've got two computers at home and I'm
- constantly updating the files between the two of them, I have a total of
- three backups; one on the "main" computer, one on Frankenstein, and a
- third on the transfer disk (I may soon be able to get a couple of network
- cards from a friend for free and so I can set things up to automatically
- update the files as well as put them onto disk! I _really_ like
- computers!).
-
- later,
- jerry.
