Saturday Open Thread | 51 comments (51 topical, editorial, 0 hidden)

I know of an agriculture topic in the Debates Box and a probably incomplete Agri-TOC in the Occasional Series box, click on over and WYS will be WYG ;)

Re: Saturday Open Thread (4.00 / 3)

I know. WIS is a WBOCTIWLTRTWWAGW¹

I write very s. l. o. w. l. y. and it would be nice, since a chart is worth 1,000 words, to post a chart to quicken the process.

Only Scoop-friendly way I know is make an image of the chart and post as jpeg, but I could be wrong!

Re: Saturday Open Thread (none / 1)

I can get from Word to HTML perfectly fine. Going from HTML to Scoop is impossible.

Or, at least, I haven't figured-out/discovered the right dongles.

HTML to Scoop is a nightmare. Though first (need I say? surely not) you need to be sure HTML Formatted is turned on. Even then...

Re: Saturday Open Thread (none / 1)

I got to HTML just fine. When I tried to upload it to Scoop it rewarded me with about 26 error messages. One half saying Scoop didn't understand and the other half saying I needed to put in an ending tag for what it didn't understand.

Re: Saturday Open Thread (none / 1)

Yep, that's the problem when you feed Scoop HTML generated elsewhere.

However, Scoop accepts comments without too much hassle. Just a handful of them in that debate, pretty please?

Well, we can give you the subset of allowed HTML, or expand it as needed.

The thing has achieved the status of more time required than time available. (I'm supposed to be working on a critique of Cantor's Diagonal Argument - ick. On the other hand, Avoidance is a Fine Art & one needs to practice. :) 'Fraid the whole thing has got to go on the back-burner for a couple of weeks.
