database job?

I took on a database job that I'm stuck on and would like to farm out the rest of it.

Platform: OpenOffice Base
Customer contact: none
Paid: yes
Estimated completion time: 3-5 hours (I've got the tables set up and some of the forms. I have to finish writing out the rest of it so I can hand it over.)
Difficulty level: 2/5.

I'm just stuck on the scripting. I used to be a pro scripter but it's been five years :-p I went back and looked at my last big Access project and was stunned at the complexity and depth of the app. I guess I build other stuff nowadays - skatepark? better borough governance?

Anyone interested?

Clean windows = more rainbows

I really like my big east-facing windows because I can hang prisms... I took them down from my allen street windows because they rattled every time a bus or beer truck drove by. Happy rainbows!

That's one clean window, one dirty window....

Acid Mine Drainage ick

More photos from the not-sand-run-falls hike (e:heidi,52710) & (e:heidi,52714)

What a cool mushroom, just hanging out on a dead branch.

Boney pile

Pine tree yellowed from the highly acidic shale that it's growing in.

Acid mine drainage pond above Babb's Creek. As the water moves down the mountain, it hits various treatment facilities but wow it's gross. And stinky.
