[14:09:32] * Bytram is about to update the Beg-o-Meter
[14:16:24] <Bytram> Beg-o-Meter: $2351.56 (67.2%) of $3500 dated: [2020-07-01 .. 2021-01-01 07:24:47]; IPIDs: [1408..1510]; as of: 2021-01-01 14:15:18 UTC
[14:35:08] <janrinok> Happy New Year to everyone!
[14:52:05] <requerdanos> Happy new year.
[15:24:17] <Bytram> Beg-o-Meter: $7106.08 (101.5%) of $7,000 dated: [2020-01-01 .. 2021-01-01 07:24:47]; IPIDs: [1408..1510]; as of: 2021-01-01 14:15:18 UTC
[15:24:35] <Bytram> H A P P Y N E W Y E A R ! ! !
[15:25:23] <requerdanos> I must confess I don't understand the base goal 7000 vs base goal 3500 etc.
[15:26:02] <Bytram> period
[15:26:20] <Bytram> $7K is for the whole year.
[15:26:31] <Bytram> $3500 for each half
[15:27:19] <requerdanos> $2350 out of $3100 looks bad, but first half was ahead so it all works out?
[15:27:29] <Bytram> yep.
[15:27:36] <requerdanos> ...please mentally correct what I typed...
[15:27:55] <Bytram> Would prefer it the other way around (trends, yano?)
[15:28:15] <requerdanos> okay. Do you think the public domain day story should run earlier in the day?
[15:28:32] <Bytram> but effects of covid accumulated thru the year
