Posted on entry Google is slightly evil ::: November 09, 2008, 05:26 PM:
Google's behavior toward Usenet has been antisocial at best for years -- their posting software used to break long-established Usenet standards, and they never seemed to care. I drifted off Usenet years ago, so don't know if they ever fixed it.

Most of what I know about cooking I learned from Joy of Cooking and Alton Brown.

A lot of episodes of Good Eats include some useful bit of technique, but it's a very random way to learn. There was an episode recently (American Slicer) that was about knives and cutting technique, and is probably worth watching.

His first cookbook (I'm Just Here For the Food) covers some of the basic stuff.

18, and I don't know my fonts at all. I was just using what I knew
of the terminology, the occasional obvious one, and later on, picking
the font whose name I hadn't seen before.

Lexmark did lose their case, though.
