                      1. James: Have you been to EAT's store? We introduced giant lolipops, Sunny D, different kinds of energy drinks. That was me doing market research because we ...played around and see what people bought. I can apply to other clubs as well because they make a fair amount of money but you can't stock them all in one store. Slim Jims, and stuff [that's for 25 cents are very popular.] It's very fun!

I have changed the way user interacts with the applications (and sent screenshots) where it would talk to the user. Something like a comic strip will come up and then he will ask "What do you wish to sell?" "What do you wish to upload." It will be like  a chat interface where he will put up the [interface] on the phone. I used AJAX and proliferated that with FIOS...
          1. Nate: You seem to be making great progress. Do you have a respostiroy or SVN?
            1. Karan: I can [start it].

Probably starting this weekend I'm gonna get the base started. The entire setup only consumes 100 Watts.

              1. Ariana: Some guys come in. I don't know who they are. Denise and Andy---
