April 4, 2006: Imploding T-27 Substructure
A bit of tech stuff: StarHub in Singapore has an international phone
service. For a prepaid Sim card (about $10 US) you can pop this into your
GSM phone (3 frequency - compatible with Europe/Middle East/India and the
Pacific except Japan and Korea) - and the cost of a phone call to the US is
10 cents/min. So I phoned Ken to ask about his ankle and got some of the
details (like D-27 was the target). Also Ken must be feeling better because
he took over my job of loading.
Video for fun: Sparky sends me a group of photos and today I made a
video from all of them. A bit chaotic, but at the same time it displays
the strategy and Sparky and I developed as we tracked different aspects
of the unbuilding processes.

The worksite: (D-27) (Jodi - D-27 is located to the left of D-28 and a
to the right of where D-26 used to be :) )
