Vacuous review. Pointless reference.

Apparently the review author failed to even try to open a simple "doc" file. I tried two, neither loaded. Ajax is an important subject but passing on rehashed pr statements without minimal investigation serves no purpose. |

Sorry. It's a slow news weekend. I've had difficulty find anything really interesting. Try running a 24-hour newswire on 10 submissions. You - like all our readers - are more than welcome to submit better stories from elsewhere or write your own. :-) |

http://www.thinkfree.com/common/main.tfo actually works. http://www.tiddlywiki.com/ is an interesting notion - an embedded application. Needing more than one good idea a day is dependency. LXer is my favorite computer news site. I can usually find that one good article. I'm just an old grouch who lashed out at 15 wasted minutes. Didn't mean to be unkind. Thanks Jim |

I can live with Tiddlywiki, but did Thinkfree go libre on us? >LXer is my favorite computer news site. I can usually find that one good article. We do try pretty hard. >I'm just an old grouch who lashed out at 15 wasted minutes. Didn't mean to be unkind. Given that we already have an old grouch, I just hope I don't get "both barrels" one day. :-D |

> an old grouch One 'official' one, and a whole bunch of unofficials :D |

Speaking of grouch (the "real" one), I haven't seen any postings from him for awhile now. Anybody know if he's ok? Us old grouches have got to stick together!!! ;-) Don K. |

I think he's working on his car these days. |

In that case, I shall step into the void left by grouch's absence. Foo suxx. Bar roxx. My way or the highway. My bones tell me it's going to rain. Dratted bones. |

tc (grouchette): I believe that your bones are being meteorologically dishonest. Here in downtown Chicago, and, I will bet, elsewhere, it is already raining. You could split hairs by arguing that continuing to rain comes under the penumbra of "going to rain", but that's splitting hairs a mite fine for honest argument's sake. |

There you go impugning my honesty again. [Insert long rebuttal]. So there. Take that. |
| dinotrac Aug 28, 2006 10:04 AM EDT |
tc - Can't we all just learn to get along? So long as you admit to being completely wrong and rude besides, of course. |
| jimf Aug 28, 2006 10:08 AM EDT |
Heck dino, she's already admitted to being a grouchette :) |
| dinotrac Aug 28, 2006 10:33 AM EDT |
jimf - Good enough for me. Hugs? |

> Hugs? jimf/ sees tux-grouchette bash dino's head with a cast iron fry pan.... :D |
