Absolute Piffle

General commentary and new links from Richard Gillmann. Sometimes it's funny, sometimes it's serious, and sometimes it's just there.

It turns out that the free KCLS WiFi signal from the Library Connection at Crossroads is strong enough to reach all the way to the Starbucks by the news stand. That's about 200 yards away. This opens up some new possibilities for free coffee shop WiFi. There are no coffee places near the Lake Hills library, nor the Newport library, and there may be one near the big Bellevue library, but I know for sure that there's a coffee shop across the street from the new Issaquah library. It's in the old Odd Fellow's Hall, a building I once considering renting or buying to make into a folk club. (The IOOF hall is one of the oldest buildings still standing in Washington state, by the way.) I will have to check out the linkage there. [Tried it - the Olde Town Bakery and Deli - no WiFi. The espresso wasn't so good either.]
