Where is SM18 and SM15_Folding Frog?
I was checking out how the various SMx rigs were doing this morning and I saw that SM18 hasn't turned in any work since 5/27/2004. I know that this machine is supposed to be at Sarcnet so why isn't it producing, TheSMJ? Is it broke down or what? 
Also, SM15_Folding_Frog hasn't turned in any work since 4/22/2004. reelbigfish is the host of this rig and is falling down on the job. Does anyone know how to contact him? If so, pass along the info, especially his home phone number so that we can recall this machine from him. He has been a very poor host lately and this machine needs to be reassigned.
I'm posting this here in the Team Forum because poor hosting concerns all of us who have contributed to the project, both money and parts. I think that we need to take a more proactive approach to hosts who aren't holding up to their end of the bargain. We have already had 3 rigs stolen from us by Shenlong and Wahoogie and Film and don't want to see this project fail due to asshat thieves or indifference on the part of the hosts.
I know that I'll probably catch flak about this thread but I don't care. I'm tired of poor hosting and indifference to non-producing rigs and it seems like the SMx committee can't get together in a timely fashion to recify matters, so I'm asking help from all team members to recover the non-producing boxes and get our hosts to watch their rigs more carefully.
Most of our hosts are doing an excellent job of keeping the boxes up and running, but we seem to have caught a few bad apples out of the barrel, IMO. To all the responsible hosts out there, thank you for doing such a wonderful job of keeping the machines up and running. To the ones not doing their jobs, if you can't host if properly then ship it back.

That's good to know, prime.
Next time though it would be nice if you would post up a little note saying that it would be off the net for a few days though.
So, who else "forgot", "misplaced", or "their dog ate it" didn't sign and return the contract?
THIS JUST IN FROM SM-19... she say, and I quote, "This vexes me, I terribly Vexed.... smacktards!!!!!! ALL OF THEM!!!!!"
WOW, I didn't know she knew words like smacktard.... quick learner, huh?
10,000 lashes for the reelbigfish....

Mr Bill , worse comes to worse you could like I do and install 2-3 clients per CPU , run them all when you leave the house so the rigs can stay busy for quite awhile without being connected , it does make for a pain to come home and have send up 5-6 W/Us on dialup on occasion , but I usually have chores to do around here when its doing it . mmonnin hooked me up with that trick a while back , the family loves you for it mmonnin
Satellite will cost about $600 up front for hardware and $59 per month with a 15 month contract. Kinda pricey, but we'll see what happens...
