Another picture of the sport whose name I've forgotten. Another view of the Hack Olympics. Lessons were also available in other types of 'hacking' Here are some people learning a little about 15th Century Swordfighting

Here's the contestants with the MC. It's worth noting that he made some of the questions (especially in the perlvars category) so hard *he* couldn't answer them. That was especially funny. In Fairy Dust We Trust! Here's the game screen. Logix pretty much dominated the final game. Alan didn't do too badly though.

These are hollowed out Port-a-Potties that housed the network and phone equiptment for the campers to hook into. Look at all the cables. This was my home for most of the camp. I worked here at the Info Desk, giving out info, making signs for the camp, and helping people find places they were trying to get to. Another game show type event. This time the contestants not only answered questions, but competed in physical activities, like this one: reassembling a keyboard. Others included Mouse Curling and Hard Drive throwing.

Here's a lovely young lady from the OpenBSD group handing out prizes. Alan got Second place!!! Here is a view of the camp taken from near the starship Fairy Dust. There were dozens of plasma balls arranged around the Fairy Dust. It was beautiful at night.

View of the Food Court

This is the HackCenter, the heart of the camp, where many people hooked up their computers. This is also where I was most of the camp, at the info desk. The area for the CERT (Chaos Emergency Response Team) who did a GREAT job taking care of everyone who fell ill or was hurt at the camp. THEY were the true Angels of camp. (The sign on the grey tent says M*A*S*H) Here's the food court, where you could get many different kinds of food. The Thai food was to DIE for. I don't know that I'll ever quite be able to forget it. I wish I'd eaten more while I had the chance.

Here I tried to get a picture of the field of plasma balls. It wasn't easy, because the area kept filling up with fog from the laser show. ;-) Because of the record high temperatures, it was important for everyone to keep cool. The Fire Department of the CERT team came out a few times on Saturday and used the Fire Truck water to cool people off. Another view of the HackCenter (possibly recognizable faces deliberately blurred)

There were BEAUTIFUL light displays on the trees. It was awe inspiring to see machine and nature so beautifully harmonized. This was one of the static ones that I managed to get a picture of. If anyone has a video of the honeycomb light show that was on the tree by the lake, please e-mail me and let me know. The sun sets on the camp. Another view of the Angel Tent. If you look very closely, you can see a few Archangels hanging around outside the tent.

Notice the plasma balls around it. There are night pictures of those here too. It was a really cool field of plasma balls at night. -- In Fairy Dust we Trust! The night was always bright with multicolored lights. Very cool. Ok, I really liked these pictures, so here's yet another picture of the plasma balls around the Fairy Dust.

I'm sorry, I've forgotten the name of the sport being played here. It's something like Joggel or something. (e-mail me if you know....) Apparently someone didn't like windows. Or at least didn't like windows 95 A small version of the Blinken Lights. It didn't come out so well on my camera....

Another small blinkenlights photo. This one came out a little better... Here's the spaceship VodkaDust. More or less. The gentleman grinning in the photo is our SecurityAngel, HonkHase. He saved me more than once from situations I didn't want to be in. Thanks HonkHase!!!! This is the tent where the Chaos-Angels (the volunteers for the camp) hung out and relaxed when they weren't working.
