| For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training. We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk. Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active! I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here)) |

Climate change, renewable resources and paper v plastic
Climate change. End of supplies of fossil fuel. Carbon footprint. Expense of road building. Cost of time lost in travel. Just what effect are we having on our planet - where are we headed and how many of the changes that we see in the climate are natural variations and parts of a natural cycle or just typical variations, and how many are man made? I don't know the answers! I have listened to comments that a major trunk road built to bypass Westbury would be good for 20 years, but would then provide a magnificent cycle path in the post-oil era. And I have listened to comments that say that our effect on the environment is a pinprick and that the earth will naturally balance for it. Both, I fear, are extreme views. I find myself as an uneducated but thoughtful member of the public thinking • I don't know who is right and who is wrong in what they say. • I don't know which of the views put is complete and unbiased • I don't know which facts I am told are proven and which are guesses There's a move to have Melksham become a plastic bag free zone at the moment - lead by an ardent campaigner who feels it's the right and proper thing that we should do. And there are others who suggest that plastic bags are actually very efficient to produce compared to paper bags, can be reused much more, and actually help within landfill by retaining the methane for later energy production rather than wasting it in an adverse carbon way. And I sit bemused on the side lines!
