> Sorry, my fault!  I got excited about Abigail's lab yesterday and forgot to confirm for today and then I overslept!  We can try to coordinate a call now via skype.  I will need to start my notebook computer.  Let's still try to complete this call today via skype.

I used monitor 14, which was donated by David Eisenberg, along with the partimus603309234 and 14 other machines and monitors (thanks, David!).

David Eisenberg had done some spot checking of these machines when he acquired them, so I am assuming that it is some operator error on my part, although Sean Castro was also in here yesterday looking at the machines and had a similar problem, so not sure what the issue is.

I created a student account, because I saw that account on a machine next to me.  The password for student is student.  The machine's specs are documented on the lab summary google spreadsheet here:
