That’s not a very good poem.

Doin the work of the FSM.

Not one of those but XMPP (once upon a time called Jabber) is available worldwide.

So is Matrix.

Colby cheese, aka Colby Jack cheese

I was there, I bought it too. At release it was already dumbed down so much that it did not live up to the expectations from the tech demos.

Thrive is very much a spiritual successor to those tech demos.

It was supposed to be an evolution engine. That’s how they developed it and how the tech demos and marketing pushed it.

Pumpkin has a strong and disgusting flavor which must be masked with spices to make it edible.

They usually would qualify it with “hot cereal”

It’s great… if you love Office 2007. But it has too many weird quirks and refuses to make any interesting changes to move forward past that.

I meant more for the layman who is more comfortable with a wysiwyg system. For me it is great, and I think LyX’s “WYSIWYM” concept is wonderful. But I’d never ask a non-IT co worker to consider those.
