Eating half a bag of grapes has a laxative effect.

That is all.

Nothing.

^ Actually JohnR told me it takes 40-50m to get to Auckland airport from my house in Takapuna to get someone from the airport at 10AM tomorrow.

So you learned that JohnR is an optimist?

Depends.  Is your car operated by Air New Zealand?  As in, is it a Boeing 777?  Because that's the only way I can see to cross that distance in 50 minutes frown

True.  It'd take 30 minutes to reach cruising altitude then 30 minutes to descend for landing

TIL RSA Licensing is a minefield.

You buy x software token licenses
You buy x ODA/RBA licenses (SMS/Email)

THEN you buy the overall number of users with authentication licenses....

So we have 200 soft token, 400 ODA token and 300 authenticator licenses - so those other 300 are not going to be used, ever.

Sigh.

I think 50 mins to Airport at 10am form Takapuna is reasonable. Probably do it in less. It takes about 35 from Ferry Buildings at 8am.

Took a day off from grapes.

Ate raisins instead.
