[03:14] <elvstone> nerochiaro: ah. i used positron. it worked great. but thanks!
[15:44] <nerochiaro> JoeBorn: just read your open letter. well written
[15:45] <JoeBorn> Thanks.
[15:45] <JoeBorn> the html is cory doctorow's suggestion
[15:45] <JoeBorn> which is a good one I think, but it's a little screwed up,the formatting.
[15:46] <nerochiaro> the suggestion was to use html in place of a closed format like, say, word ?
[15:47] <nerochiaro> and anyway, doesn't seem screwed up in formatting at all
[15:48] <nerochiaro> you just have to adjust the TITLE tag, doesn't look good
[15:49] <JoeBorn> I can do that.
[15:55] <JoeBorn> nope, don't even know how to do that.
[15:55] <JoeBorn> aaaaarrrrrrrrggggggghhhhh!
[15:56] <nerochiaro> take it easy ;) if you don't plan to review the doc any more, you can just alter it in the HTML itself.
[15:59] <nerochiaro> well, anyway. did contacting representatives hold any weight in US politics ? I ask because i'm not very knowledgeable with that, and around here where i live most of the people have so little faith in our politicians that don't even bother doing something like that anymore
[15:59] <nerochiaro> hopefully in the US it is still worth something
[16:02] <JoeBorn> no, it works here, if there's a public outcry, the representatives will listen.
[16:05] <nerochiaro> that's reassuring. let's hope enough people step up then. btw, did you manage to read that speech by doctorow i gave you the link to some time ago ?
[16:08] <JoeBorn> yes I did, I read the whole thing
[16:10] <nerochiaro> excellent. i take you did you find it interesting, then ?
[16:10] <nerochiaro> given the fact you seem to be in contact with doctorow himself seems like an indication of that
[17:57] <JoeBorn> can you guys try this open.neurostechnology.com
[17:58] <JoeBorn> try it if you aren't logged in to the site
[18:25] <iswm> "Put another way, trying to reduce copyright piracy by closing the Analog Hole is like outlawing the sun roof to prevent thieves from stealing car stereos."
[18:25] <iswm> That made me laugh for a good 3 or 4 minutes, JoeBorn.
[18:26] <Eagle_Fire> loads fine for me
[18:29] <Eagle_Fire> well-written, joe
[18:40] <chreekat> The content is great, but is there any reason you have 20+ extra <p>'s at the end of the document?
[18:42] <chreekat> Also, it looks like you have a useful CSS <style> in the header, but then still use (identical) style options for each <p>. You could just put the 'margin-left: ...' in the style at the top and take out the others. :)
[18:43] <chreekat> oh, openoffice generated it. :) that explains it
[18:44] <chreekat> I spent the last month learning HTML and light-speed to get some project done. It kinda jumps to the front of my attention now
[18:44] <chreekat> er, than's 'HTML /at/ light-speed'
[18:45] <chreekat> *that's
[18:45] <chreekat> oy.
[21:35] <Adam9> another toledoan
[23:58] <JoeBorn-having> I'd like to add a link to the IRC itself from OdNT
[23:58] <JoeBorn-having> what's the HTML for that?
[23:59] <Eagle_Fire> "#neuros on irc.freenode.net"
[23:59] <Eagle_Fire> i don't think there are any official IRC url handlers
