Today I logged into WoW for a few minutes, and when I logged out, I noticed the background downloader had started, and it says it is indeed for 3.2.   Generally I’ve noticed that the background downloader starts up about 1 – 2 weeks before a major patch.  Could it be soon?  Let’s hope.  The patch so far looks to be about 273mb.  I’m guessing that’s new graphics and model information.  Actual code won’t appear until the real patch goes live.

I added a new page to the blog.  It’s an old piece written in 1982 by a man named Ed Post.  I read it before many years ago but ran across it today and wanted to share.  It’s way too big for a blog post and I thought it deserved it’s own page.  The permalink is http://www.spiritfiresrealm.com/real-programmers/
