Is it at all possible to write up transcripts? I know that's a bit of extra work but it would be very helpful.

Good morning! This is Brian. It’s Tuesday morning, the 10th of November, 2015 and I’m about to read Steve’s questions and answer them.

First question: What are you working on?

At the moment I’m working on an F-POSS solution for a cab company in Australia.

Question Number 2:. What is a memorable discussion that you have had on Hubski? Who was it with and why has it stuck with you?

There are a few of those I think, but probably my favorite conversation on Hubski was the discussion we had about The Watchmen; the graphic novel not the movie. It was just really interesting, in depth, a lot of good comments. There have also been a lot of good comments about self-driving cars.

Go on to question 3. What is your message? Interesting question. I don’t think I really have a message other than, I don’t know, just off the top of my head: the secret to a happy life is keeping busy, having lots of things to do. I’m maybe a little bit too far in that extreme. I have lots of side hobbies and projects. And I have so many that I never have enough time to get anything done. But I’m a home brewer and a bee keeper. Never have enough time to spend on my boat. Just having a lot of things to do is a good way to go about your life.

That wasn’t very long, but maybe Steve can flesh it out and make something good out of it. Thank you all, Hubski, and I’ll talk to you later.

EFTPOS = electronic funds transfer at point of sale - credit / debit card machines - in this case, mobile units with GPS, for Uber-like functionality.

Thanks. That was the only part I had to guess at. You get what you pay for.

I forget sometimes the jargon I've picked up, living in the Antipodes.

As it is I have about 30 minutes a day of leisure time. If someone else would like to do that for us, that's fine. Otherwise, have a listen when you can. Hearing the persons voice and vocal mannerisms is half the joy. I bet you can't listen at work through, huh?

Yeah, if someone else cares to do it, I'm all for it.

Cheers
