Just a quick note ... I am swamped and so the web site has gone unattended for a while. Never fear that should change shortly! Some quick notes on what is coming. If you have recently sent in contact info updates, thank you very much, I will add them shortly. I am planning a Christmas 2006 page, so please mail your Holiday pictures to builder -at- ihs75 -dot- com. I will be allowing access to the contact information once again. It will be a little different as I am going to add a login and password to protect this information. In addition this will allow me to add a discussion board/chat area where we can communicate. For those with a technological interest, I have been aquiring Web 2.0 programming skills using Ruby, Ruby on Rails and Javascript. The page will be converted to this environment in the next couple of months. If you are a web programmer and you haven't taken a look at this stuff you owe it to yourself as it is awesome. If you are in need of a consultant to do some web programming, please don't hesitate to contact me.

I am doing a little playing with Google Adsense and Amazon and so you will see some ads and links in various places around the site. For the Amazon link, if you want to buy someting at Amazon and you start here then we will get a small commission on the purchase. Any income will be used to defray the cost of future reunions. Any knowledge gained is mine :-)!

It has been brought to my attention that the search engines are getting more aggressive in the way they index pages. The result is that more of your personal information than I am comfortable with may be available with a search. Because of that I have removed all contact information, except your name and encoded email (if I have it) from the database. Clearly this is less than desirable for us to communicate, so at some point in the future I will put in some time and come up with a better way to solve this problem. Since it is a bigger project it will have wait for me to have some free time to complete it. Note that I will continue to keep the database (at home) so please continue to update me with any new contact information. As always if you need help, have questions, or want to find someone just mail builder -at- ihs75 -dot- com.

This summer the class of 1976 is having their 30th reunion weekend, July 28-30. So, what could this possible have to do with you? Well.... Saturday night, the 29, the plan is to hold an open multi-class year dance and general mayhem fest at Castaways. The place is reserved for IHS folks and will be low key, no cover, DJ with great music and just a regular cash bar, hopefully with some food and other embellishments. In case you didn't follow Wisconsin went on to win the Frozen Four. The bad news is David McKee left Cornell early for the NHL's Anaheim Mighty Ducks.

The Big Red had a nice run in Green Bay with an awesome 3-2 come back win over Colorado College after falling behind 2-0. On Sunday it was a battle of the goal tenders and Cornell lost 1-0 in the 3rd overtime period. David McKee did a great job in the net. Very frustrating to see them lose in OT 2 years in a row. I guess that is they way it is as the last time they made it to the frozen 4, was 2003, and they beat BC in OT to get there. Time to move on to Lacrosse with the Big Red lax team ranked #2 in the national poll and #1 in the computer power ranking. This is a great Lacrosse site.

After beating Colgate 2-0 on Friday night the Big Red lost he ECAC championship game to Harvard. Bummer! Even worse the committee could have put them in the northeast regional in Worcester Mass, but instead they sent them packing to Green Bay!!! I added a link with some great sites you can use to keep up with the Big Red and college hockey.

The Big Red hockey team is hot right now. They are currently playing in the ECAC championship this weekend at the Pepsi Arena in Albany. They are pretty well assured of a bid to the NCAA tourney that starts the following weekend. The first round of the the frozen four version of March madness is played at 4 sites around the country. This year the regionals are in Worcester MA, Albany NY, Grand Forks ND, and Green Bay WI. If Cornell ends up in either Worcester or Albany, I will be there to watch. Amazon has a great book on the history of Cornell Hockey.
I highly recommend it for Cornell hockey fans.
