Setting up your dev environment to log, instead of send, emails
Thought I'd share this since it can help a) prevent inadvertently sending out massive emails from your dev environment and b) help you debug the emails that are going out:
put this simple script somewhere, call it dev-mailer or dev-mailer.bash or something:
#!/bin/bash cat >> /tmp/logmail.txt
Save it, chmod 755.
Now, edit your php.ini script (use phpinfo() in a web server script or php -i from the command line to find which ones are being used).
For the "sendmail_path" configuration, change it to this:
sendmail_path = /dir/to/dev-mailer.bash
Save, restart your web server.
In a new terminal do:
tail -f /tmp/logmail.txt
I'm not sure if it works with Windows.
Hope that helps.

Some thoughts about being a Tourist
I was walking around Hyde Park in London by myself an hour ago, wrapping up a business trip to London that was extended due to the Klasi3r03ALK39A3KJKJ Volcano erupting and bestowing mayhem on an otherwise orderly world.
I was mentally reviewing my trip and my stolen chances to be a tourist in my off hours from work and I think I nailed this trip. I have never been out of North America before, and this was a good shallow-end-of-the-pool trip for me. And, I discovered that I am more interested in how people live than some of the big sites and typical tourist destinations.

Review of the Bayswater-Rhodes Hotel in London
The fourth place I stayed while in London (following the Windmill Inn in Cricklewood, The Yotel at Heathrow, the Club Quarters in Central London) is the Bayswater-Rhodes Hotel.
The room I was in a regular hotel room, but SMALL. That's okay, I don't need much. In comparison to the Windmill Guest House, it had all the hotel norms; soap, a hair-dryer, desk, full length mirror, phone in the room, etc.

Review of the “Yotel” in Heathrow Airport, London
Recently I was in London and had a relatively early flight, so I chose to stay in the London Heathrow Yotel.
If you visit the Yotel web site, and view the cabins, you get a pretty good idea of what they are like. They are quite small, uber modern, quiet and, in my opinion, worth the expense.
