but when is anyone actually active on #HuSi  ?

Look inside for something else.



For those of you who actually bothered to look in here, here is a picture of a Goldfinch I managed to get today:

Well, as far as I can tell... by newht (6.00 / 1) #1 Wed May 12, 2004 at 06:30:42 PM EST
Never. But when I do get on IRC it tends to be at odd times

I've seen #husi active at all times of the day, but it tends to be most active in the late afternoon, early evening for me. early-mid morning also seems to be active, but i'm usually dead to the world, and not participating in IRC, or anything else for that matter (This is PST, btw...)

I generally get on #husi by Metatone (6.00 / 1) #4 Wed May 12, 2004 at 08:39:50 PM EST
in the time between 6:30pm - midnight UKian time...
usually it's quiet in that time with a few bursts of conversation...

<shrugs>



Nice goldfinch by the way... by Metatone (6.00 / 2) #5 Wed May 12, 2004 at 08:40:35 PM EST
do you fry them or roast?

...did you manage to get so close to the bird without scaring it off? Zoom lens?



Well by MrPlow (3.00 / 0) #16 Thu May 13, 2004 at 04:07:38 AM EST
it had recently flown head-first into a window, so it was stunned.

I'm always on by BadDoggie (6.00 / 1) #8 Wed May 12, 2004 at 09:59:11 PM EST
But I'm usually away. I can nrmally be trolled/bitched at from 1700-2400 GMT, plus various times of day on the weekends. Or during the (EUian) day if I'm working from home.

Unless I'm completely off the network, which happens sometimes.

I normally only go on IRC when I'm drunk, very very bored, or looking for somebody.

There should be a #husi breath test... by Metatone (6.00 / 1) #10 Wed May 12, 2004 at 10:18:12 PM EST
if you are not at work then you need a certain level of blood alcohol before you are let in...

Nice photo. by ambrosen (6.00 / 1) #12 Wed May 12, 2004 at 11:07:54 PM EST
Although I think that I have say that I think it's a greenfinch, not a goldfinch, which in its European version has bright red patches on its cheeks and in its American edition is bright gold. Like very bright.

I went on #HuSi last night, and hope I didn't piss anyone off too much: first time on IRC. Sorry, I didn't mean to run off when you were talking to me, Metatone.

The bird by MrPlow (3.00 / 0) #17 Thu May 13, 2004 at 04:12:00 AM EST
is a Lesser Goldfinch; they tend to be greenish-looking on the back like that.

I'm pretty sure we don't have greenfinches here in California.

Cool. by ambrosen (3.00 / 0) #18 Thu May 13, 2004 at 05:20:11 AM EST
I thought you were UKian, and it bears a strong resemblance to a European greenfinch, and very little resemblance to a European goldfinch.

I saw you sign on last night by webwench (6.00 / 1) #14 Thu May 13, 2004 at 02:08:58 AM EST
but it was past my bedtime. You missed a stimulating conversation about basements, ceilings and roofs, and separation of content from presentation though.
