Ahh :-) I'd forgotten about <guilabel>, and definitely didn't know about <replaceable> :-) I'll remember to use those on any other work I do. > You should add yourself at least in the 'credits and license' section, and > probably in the <bookinfo> section too.

Well, if the rest of KDE PIM isn't installed with Kontact, Kontact's gonna be freakin' out, I daresay... I'm not sure if it's designed to actually check for programs before inserting them into the sidebar. > Please feel free to ask about any changes I've suggested, and to disagree > with them if you want :-).

Would it be easy to resize the Kontact > window and retake them?) Did you think so? I wasn't entirely sure. I tried to get them at a size where as much as possible of the content was visible. If you think I should make them smaller, however, I'll go ahead and do that. Should I resize Kontact and retake them, or just use ImageMagick/GIMP to resize the image itself? > > PS: For future reference, how large is 'quite large'? :-) > > I guess >500KB is 'quite large' (well, www.ntk.net seems to think so :-).

There are many examples of outsiders who eventually overthrew entrenched scientific orthodoxies, but they prevailed with irrefutable data. More often, egregious findings that contradict well-established research turn out to be artifacts. I have argued that accepting psychic powers, reincarnation, "cosmic conciousness," and the like, would entail fundamental revisions of the foundations of neuroscience. Before abandoning materialist theories of mind that have paid handsome dividends, we should insist on better evidence for psi phenomena than presently exists, especially when neurology and psychology themselves offer more plausible alternatives. - - Barry L.
