I'm a heavy user of the WindowMaker wm, and i like it because it is the only wm that handles X classes instead of application window. But since yesterday, i installed KDE 3.2 and began to... like it! Hey, KDE begins to be a good UI : DnD works correctly, Contextual menus are smart, and well.. everything is easier than Windo$ XP ! That's all folks..
Looking for an algorithm to compute a distance between two trees (graphs), i found a very cool search engine based on the bibTeX bibliography format to retrieve scientifical articles. Here is the url: CiteSeer.ist.psu.edu . It contains a huge amount of links to free downloadable articles.
She called me

Fly me to the m00n
and
Let me play among the st4rs

Got a useless webcam at work that i can use as a mirror and verify i'm not too much bearded or to experiment my own stupidity. One should see me working and debugging between 9am and 7pm (France). I still don't know why i brougth it up although it allowed me to discover some HTML <meta> to refresh the screen without any javascript or java applet.
2 years ago, i sent a clean patch for a very well known program and the author sent me a brief "thanks.." but never applied the patch which was however interesting for the program. I recently contacted him to ask if i could fork his program and apply my patch deliberately. He replied me that he would put my patch on his ftp site (but still not apply it). That is the first time i encounter this kind of situation...
