737 - Yeah? Oh yeah? Well at least I don't use frames. =).
re: zip database - It isn't freely available (as a download or webservice), at least not from them.
Yeago, I figure it's every person on the Nebula lists whose name you recognized.
If you could manage to keep track of basic facts about this discussion you'd realize how off-mark this comment is, in a technical sense.
Foremost, its not my list. Sheepishly I have to admit that I didn't even recognize all of the authors Kristen listed. I've read some Card (thanks to her), Herbert and Stephenson. While I'm a mere dabbler, there was something utterly missing from 0wnz0red (NO, not more works and NO, not his entire works) that kristen's illustration seemed to capture (aside from my own complaints that, topically, it seemed, strangely, derivative of its own audience).
I shared it to get a real response from someone in the community (of which I have seen only glimmers because of all this name-calling/dismissal). I wonder if I hadn't posted admidst this whole suckpoppet business if--in context--my original psot would have seemed more tame. Maybe I would have achieved my result.
general seriousness, slight amusement, and decided annoyance
As long as we're there, Riker had about 3 as well: flushed angry-serious, miffed/surprised, and "I'm going to do you".
Haha. "Odd synchronicity". I suppose sleeping in the same bed with someone gives you all kinds of odd syncronicities, the least of which is an IP address. lp t p y pntr-dg.
Xopher. Excellent advice. I'm sorry you missed my trying that =)
Teresa, you said here
"13. If someone you’ve disemvowelled comes back and behaves, forgive and forget their earlier gaffes. You’re acting in the service of civility, not abstract justice."
Anyway, I am merely responding to questions about my USPS Zip database argument to an fellow-interested techie.
If someone reads this before the vowels are gone, could you please tell Midori I am attempting to answer his questions (since my comments have no vowels, I'm effectively censored as he's not catching that I am referring to him. I'd email him directly, but he's using a bunk email).
