Same back to you, Daenerys!
October has proven to be a very tough month here. At one point, between just my boss and myself, we were trying to service one TV translator, install another translator, and do a major retrofit to our main transmitter (all at once due to vendor schedules, and the fact that we can't easily get up the higher mountains during winter. One of the sites isn't much more accessible than The Eyrie! (It even has a tramway to the site, but it needs an expensive repair right now.) Almost the moment this was finished, there was the terrible massacre of havzi zhokwa and hlizifi in Zanezville, Ohio. I was in deep mourning for several days, both for the terrible loss of 'friends', and for the fact that there is going to be tremendous pressure put on lawmakers to ban the kinds of animals we catkeepers enjoy and benefit from working with.
While all this was going on, I was also moving our old analog TV transmitter to my home, where it will become part of my little museum of broadcast technology. That is finally complete, and I can start restoration of it on my own schedule now.
In the meantime (when I have had time), I have been busy with a major upgrade to the dictionary. I am about 2/3rds finished with it. When done, the dictionary should match the wiki in content, but be more suited to the reader/writer who needs a compact, searchable, offlineable vocabulary. I was elated last night when a test compile of the dictionary compiled without errors after about 10 days of changes!
Things are finally slowing down here, with the last busy weekend of the year before the holidays now behind me. Probably not today, but we should all get together for a chat soon.
