[home/webdesign/perl_scripts] Classic case of the big guy goin’ after the little guy: I got an email this week from Geocaching.com asking me to remove my little application that I created to make GPX files. GPX files contain GPS data to put in your portable GPS unit. My software was good because it put more extensive information in the file than you would normally be able to get from their web site, including things like difficulty, terrain, descriptions, comments, etc. Here’s the email: Please be advised that your GeoCache GPX Grabber application violates the geocaching.com Terms Of Use Agreement. So, I’m sorry if you were using this program from my site, or planning on getting it someday. Perhaps it’s out there on one of the download sites which caches downloads, but I’m removing it from my site so I don’t get lawyers calling me. If anyone has any insight into the legitimacy of their complaint, or if you’re a lawyer, I’d love to hear from you. Please leave a comment. ~Jason Update: This is all because I refuse to remove Bryan’s contact information above— he’s afraid of the fallout he will get, I guess. They banned me a couple of days ago, then minutes later, unbanned me. Now they’re banning again. I’m not sure what the point of this is, eactly, since it’s simple enough for anyone to sign up for another account… all you need is a valid email address. I guess they’re just trying to be mean. I don’t like mean people, what about you? So, I’m not going to ask you to be mean back, even though that’s what the natural reaction might be. Instead, why don’t you send Bryan a nice email telling him what a nice guy he is. Either I’ll set up another account, or maybe I’ll explore geocaching alternatives? Navicache looks promising.
GPX Grabber Being Removed
In addition, your use of the geocaching.com Trademark logo to sell a commercial product constitutes Trademark Infringement.
Accordingly, we are respectfully requesting that you immediately cease all distribution of the application as well as all use of our Trademark.
If you’d like to discuss this further, please contact me. Otherwise, please respond with confirmation that the above requests have been honored.
Thank you.

This is so pitiful. Now Geocaching.com has banned my boys and I from using their web site, even though I have complied with their terms of service by removing the script. ![]()

[home/hobbies/familytree] I added a feature to the Perl script I use for sharing my family tree online. (I don’t really like this Perl script, as it’s somewhat unweildy to modify, and it doesn’t always display the results I expect— but oh well!) Anyway, this new feature displays all the surnames in the tree. Here’s a copy and paste from it below. You’ll need to email me for a password to get more information on these individuals. “Unknown” | Abrams | Agnew | Aiken | Albertson | Allen | Allport | Alton | Anderson | Ann | Ansley | Arnold | Asselstine | Avehousen | Ayling | Babbit | Babcock | Babcook | Badour | Baker | Barringer | Bartram | Bauder | Beate | Beckwith | Beebe | Begley | Bell | Bennett | Benson | Benstead | Bentley | Bicknell | Bilodeau | Birney | Bishop | Bishop-Abrams | Black | Blanchard | Bodway | Bolger | Bond | Booth | Boutillier | Bovey | Bowes | Breckenbridge | Bredberg | Brewer | Bridgen | Brooks | Brown | Bruce | Buck | Burdick | Burley | Burnett | Burton | Butler | Campbell | Carlson | Carr | Carter | Casselman | Chaplan | Christie | Chrysler | Cifala | Clark | Clow | Colburn | Condie | Conlin | Corneil | Cornwall | Coulter | Cox | Craig | Crapo | Crawford | Cronk | DaSilva | Dafoe | Darking | Darling | Davis | Daw | Day | Del-Mei | Demerchant | Desrochers | Devana | Diamond | Dowdall | Duffy | Duffy Smith | Dunn | Dunton | Dwyer | Easter | Ellerbeck | Elliott | Elvidge | Emmon | Evans | Ferguson | Ferris | Fleming | Ford | Forrest | Forsyth | Foster | Freeman | Friel | Funk | Gallagher | Gard | Garret | Garrett | Gazzel | Gemill | Goodfriend | Gordanier | Gordon | Gordonier | Graham | Gratto | Graves | Green | Greenstreet | Gregg | Grems | Grice | Griffin | Guittard | Guthrie | Hagerman | Halliday | Hamilton | Hanley | Harkness | Harpell | Harris | Hart | Hatt | Hawkins | Hayes | Heinricks | Helms | Henry | Highland | Highland / Hyland | Himple | Holmes | Holtz | Hoppins | Howey | Hunter | Hyland | Ilan | Jackson | Jeffrey | Jenkins | Johnson | Jones | Joyce | Joynt | Karn | Keeley | Keller | Kemp | Kenahan | Kiesel | Kilpatrick | King | Knapp | Krahermharn | Kyle | LaPlante | Lake | Lamour | Lanuza | Latimer | Lattimore | Lawson | LeBlanc | LeHeup | Leavens | Lech | Lee | Leeman | Lees | Lewis | Linau | Lindsay | Locey | Loewen | Lord | Loucks / Sedore | Lovelace | Loveless | Lowe | Lubiniv | Lyon | MacLeod | MacPhail | Major | Makem | Mandoles | Mann | Marie | Marriott | Martin | Massa | Matthew | May | McClenaghan | McCollough | McCullan | McGuire | McKeigan | McKinley | McKinnley | McNaughton | McPhail | McQuarrie/McImrie | Mcleods | Melo | Merry | Millar | Miller | Milsap | Morrow | Morton | Mulholland | Mullin | Mullins | Murray | Mutton | Nadeau | Nesbitt | Neudorf | Neufeld | Niblock | Northmore | O’Flaherty | O’neil | O’neill | Orr | Orser | Page | Passenessi | Peer | Pero | Perry | Peters | Phillips | Pocock | Poudrier | Powley | Pratt | Prosser | Pullen | Purdy | Raymond | Regan | Reid | Revell | Richardson | Ridge | Riley | Rindone | Rixten | Robidoux | Robinson | Rodeghiero | Rogers | Rollar | Ross | Ruttan | Rutter | Sands | Savage | Sawatzky | Schneider | Scott | Shales | Shannon | Sheen | Shepherd | Shier | Shirrock | Silver | Simpson | Sinclair | Sith | Sloot | Smith | Snider | Snook | Spafford | Spooner | Stantliff | Steel | Stephenson | Stitt | Stubbs | Sturdevant | Sutherland | Switzer | Teal | Teichroeb | Thompson | Thorp | Timmerman | Townsend | Tuepah | Van Camp | Van Hoek | Van Leuvan | Van Voorst | VanOrden | Vancoughnut | Vanluven | Vassal | Veley | Votery | Wagner | Wakely | Walker | Walls | Walters | Wartman | Watkins | Watts | Webster | Welch | Welsh | Whan | White | Wilson | Winslow | Winters | Wiseman | Woodcock | Woodward | Wowk | Wright | Wylie | Yeomans | Yeomans Arnold | Young | Zacharias | campbell | hutchinson | jones | macDonnell | Van der Kraats | ~Jason

Just
At least, I don’t think he was. But I saw you doing the right thing by him, and caring for him. I wish I could do the same. You cared for lonely old people like that man who made those blankets. Thank you.

[home/journal] The last month or so, my spam factor has been going through the roof. I’m so annoyed. I get a few hundred spam messages a day, and most of that is handled by my three separate mail filters. So that’s not too big a deal. But the real annoying stuff is the comment and trackback spam on my blog. I just realised last night that I’ve been getting trackback spam for months now. It’s all deleted now, but I am really annoyed. I set up some custom filters for the blog comment spam six months ago, and they seem to be working. Now I need to do the same for trackbacks. Another place where spam is annoying me is through my testimonies at Intelliscript.net. It’s really stupid spam, too, because there are no links or HTML allowed at all in the posts, so why do they keep doing it? Plus, I approve all comments before they’re actually displayed— so why do these spammers not give up? Nothing is getting through! I’m also getting spam through my ‘contact’ forms on various web sites. I get spam through my message board at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/church_worship_planning_software/ everyday too. Does anyone else out there ever get spam? I know I’ve had it! When will this problem go away? Instead, it just seems to be getting worse!! ~Jason

[home/webdesign/perl_scripts] If you want to convert the signature data to a .png file (using GD Library and the signature data) for any reason, a petition user has written a script which fits the bill. His name is Tino, and here’s his script: $signature is the signature data. You can use this in your pages: <img src=”signature.php”> where signature.php is the name of the code above. Cool eh? Thanks Tino!
Petition PHP Script
<?php
header (“Content-type: image/png” );
$signature = “39 40 39 40”;
$points = explode(” “, $signature);
$image = imagecreate(250, 65);
$bgcolor = imagecolorallocate($image, 255, 255, 255);
$color = imagecolorallocate($image, 0, 0, 0);
for ($x = 0; $x < count($points) - 2; $x = $x + 2) imageline($image, $points[$x], $points[$x + 1], $points[$x + 2], $points[$x + 3], $color);
imagepng($image);
imagedestroy($image);
?>

[home/music] The concert tonight was a real blast… it started kinda slow, with 12 faithful fans… moving up to fourteen, then 20… but by the end we had 48 viewers watching! Thanks to each of you who came, and who brought family and friends over to watch. I hope it was fun! I’m always humbled and honoured to hear that people are enjoying my music. Thank you. We’ve already started talking about the next one, and how we can make it better. But if we’re going to go to all this work in planning, then we need even more people to come! So please, spread the word!! Love you all,
Fun Time Had By All

[home/music] So I PaintShop’d this photo to get an idea of what it would look like, and I sent a few links out to people who said they definitely wanted one. In that time, about 12 hours, I’ve already sold four!! I had sold two in the first hour! If you would like to be one of first to buy this tee shirt (for guys or girls, in four size options)— then just click the links below. It’s sure a lot of fun, doing this music thing on MySpace! ~Jason
Tee Shirts?
Man, can’t believe the response I’ve been getting from people about tee-shirts, over at MySpace.com! They love the idea of having the train locomotive logo on a shirt!
