Shagnasty does not get is that, for instance, the Bible is very old, updates have only hurt it and that saying old is bad it has become neo-ist describing the destruction of the Earth in ways that would make Christ pause -- Neo-ist is my word for fascism which is also very old, dating back to Plato's sick thinking -- the "man" named the inquisition. I have been told that Mumford's "Technics and Civilization" is "too old" to be bought for a library consistently by librarians, yet it perfectly describes why the Internet has become nearly pure lie, despite being written in the 1930s -- thus it is not the Internet, but the Information Society, which Mumford traces back to the back-whipping Pharoes who built the pyramids with machines made from humans -- machines did not exist. So what I am saying is that you resemble the Pharaohs, and not the hard-working workers who were forced to build monuments to the Pharaohs' control systems, the pyramid that was later used to defeat democracy by Plato with layers of the diseases of "defective dominance" at the top, and normal, collaborative people below to build the defect top. In the beginning, I thought the Internet was power because it "beat the system at its own game." That is to say (paraphrasing in Mumford) is that it is a diffuse network with no place to attack just as the Roman Empire created and used to suck all the blood from Europe causing its collapse. Now with the forced upgrades, the system you intend to implement (via equally Platonic rationalist arguments--largely deception) that has been consistently buggy and offers far too many features than are useful, and thus makes a system than cannot work on the average computer or through the average network. All that is needed from an editor is basic HTML, no pixel shit taking up valuable screen real estate, or psychotic paradigms that seek to eliminate the NEWLINE. If MS Word is what you want, use that -- if you can afford the ineffectual bugginess of BlueGriffon, you can certainly afford a Word license. and knowing you for who you are, you can most certainly steal a copy. Basic HTML can be inserted into reasonable web pages (untouched by psychotic rationalists) and adorned with CSS. That is all she wrote; the Web is a natural construct that became synthesized by sickness starting about 2002 -- as I stood next to the collapsing WTC in 2001, and comtemplated the end of the US technology "market" in 2002, I saw the connection: mental illness: psychosis and aspergers. This is the correct, scientific explanation for what is happening here in this thread and historically in the information society and even in national economies -- normal people build and sick people exploit and destroy it. If this is NOT the case, then why is the melting of the ice caps "off topic?" You have just been diagnosed. On Sat, Apr 27, 2013 at 3:58 PM, Paul B.
