WCG will be a major challenge. We are 124th by TC, a decent inprovement from 131st a few months ago, but only 128th by RAC. All my CPU cores are on WCG apart from my i7 which does much better on CPDN. Anybody else have resources they can divert (preferably not from Einstein, Rosetta or CPDN) to WCG?
Anybody have any recruitment ideas? _________________ Willie the Megacruncher

I will do a short burst on WCG but I cannot appease the Electric Key GOD for long.
I am also boldly going beyond where the house electrics have been before so wish me luck  _________________

... meantime Steve has hit 1M on POEM which makes for 103 project millionaires.
... and it looks like we're going for UK no.1 on Leiden... poor ol' Radio Caroline. I think this might be a good excuse for a toast...
Another good excuse might be the fact that it's snowing outside and getting home looks like it's going to be quite an adventure. Us tropical penguins ain't used to this kind of thing...  _________________ "Hello, Myrtle, put the wizard on the wire. He's in the sanctum."

I put out an e-mail a few days ago to all TSBT WCG members hoping to raise activity.
Quite a few have since roused themselves from WCG retirement to do a bit more for us. Particular thanks are due to darrenw1234, (ironically I'd been looking forward to displacing him as TSBT #1 for the project if he stayed inactive), GarryDH, Andy Manzie & gaidheal. Apologies to anyone else I've missed & onwards & upwards. _________________ Willie the Megacruncher

Steve you were so right. My electricity company are still pondering what have caused the meter to die in such a manner.
