    Kill process! Kill! Kill! Kill Process = good name for a death metal band.

    Also, thanks for playing our song “Halloween Is Awesome.”

    Another good podcast, kill those zombies!!
    BTW, the best addition to my home automation system was the Signalinc repeater from Smarthome. It allows the X-10 signals to pass from one phase of the house wiring to the other. You plug it in where your clothes dryer plugs in. It really increased the reliability of the system. Too bad I never did any kind of setup for Halloween, but I do one for Christmas.

    the Signalinc repeater is a great product. I bought one of those as soon as they came out with it. Much better than having to use a phase coupler on your main breaker box. Thanks for the comment and thanks for listening!

    Gratulations on Episode #20.
    Again a podcast worth hearing (I like the ones with more “fun” in it…)

    BTW: “Kill -9″ could be interpreted - especially the “-9″ of “going for the head”.

    eol: Thanks for the comments. As for kill -9. we all know how important it is to go for the head when defending yourself against zombies!

    Brad: All I can say is - BRAAAAAAIIIIIIINNNNNSSSS!!!
