There is a pretty large school of thought that says there is no problem with split infinitives in English. Complaining about split infinitives is kind of like saying guess what happened to Mike and I. I realised that as I wrote -- but I rather like the provocation that solid standards seem to have on large schools of people: I used to get a kick out of pointing out Microcruft's W3C breaches. Now they've got their act together, I need a new hobbyhorse, and think the Beeb is convenient (coz I'm sat here). Really, not too radical to suggest the BBC be a standard bearer, is it?

Just wanted to add that there may be other people on the list interested/going, if so, let's try and hook up afterwards maybe? Mario. Sure, I'm attending. Still haven't got round to posting my SL efforts here but a few of the things I've done so far are plotting Google Earth KML feeds on a globe in SL and using the Yahoo Weather RSS to create a dynamic UK weather map ( a bit like the NOAA one. I tried to use the BBC feeds but they didn't appear to have current data and the info appeared to be embedded in text rather than a tag ). Have also got our chatbots working in world so you can ask for BBC programme times etc. Main office is at Nari 48,170, 134 and a demo area at Nari 15,240,125.
