Started on the latest batch of beans tonight, too early to tell if the addition of castor oil is going to prevent flatulence but I don't have much faith. They didn't cook as well this time, I assume because I didn't have any bones to add for thermal inertia.
Guess I got my USB-bootable KNOPPIX working just in time, the hard drive won't mount at all tonight. Might have lost a lot of downloaded music and gigabytes of code; but then again it may all be salvageable eventually. Not going to sweat it too much.
Going to Santa Rosa tomorrow to buy a replacement cell phone via Craigslist. My phone still works, but neither charger does, and this phone should have an identical charger and battery; it's also possible my SIM card will work in it. And it's a much better phone.
