09:15 am - I Hate Notes

This is an actual email I had to send to several colleagues this morning:

My apologies. <rant>Lotus Notes is the dumbest, most worthless, most despicable piece of broken trash software I have ever dealt with.</rant> Okay, now that's out of the way....

I didn't realize that Notes would not keep track of who had actually accepted my meeting invites. Or rather, it _does_ keep track of them, but only until I invite more people. At that point, all previous reponses from prior participants go away. If you don't keep the actual acceptance messages, as I did not, you have no way of knowing who accepted.

So please remind me if you accepted the invite to the May 13th Reuben outing at The Ram (at 11:30am). I will write your names on a piece of paper with a pen so I don't lose this information.

Again, my apologies.
