I was sitin very close to a (clearly unmarried) couple having dinner
This as last week
They talked at length about computational linguistics, and mostly what
they
thought was some sort of innovative games that they designed. They didn't
sound innovative. It sounded more like picture recognition and rebuses.
I
could be wrong. I wasn't paying attention but I couldn't help but hear
what
they were talking about because the tables were that close
I don't remember hearing anything about Gahan Wilson or excel.

"If you want archivability in paper, be sure to find out about it before
buying it. And double-check for balanced pH with a testing device, such
as a pH testing pen.
EXTERNAL CONTAMINATION can come from self-adhesive tape, glue, acidic
paper, humidity, skin oils, temperature, aerosols and ultraviolet or
strong light."--terry whittier
