hi again, before my hard disk dies..

it's been awfully unstable since i got back from a wonderful day on 
Kota Baru beach! i'm thinking that the salt might have got in since i
was doing my article there ...  it won't boot properly, hangs quite
often, and already had several major softwares chewed up ... :S  (if i
dissappear for several days, consider me offline in the repair shop.)

Yuki, Yukie is both feminin/common name. Hori, Horie is also common name
in Japan.  Rhyming like Yukie Horie don't sound right for a Japanese
name so this one is out of option (distinctly different from Tagalog?)
but it took me sometime to figure out whether she was Yuki Horie or 
Yukie Hori.  [ Can you tell by now?? :) ]

good. yukihiro is working out the configuration for the fast server now
now so it could be a good timing. (just saw him announcing test site for
real.audio)
