ShelleyTheRepublican’s website is nothing but satire. It just has to be. Nobody can be THAT much of an establishment stooge.

I think it’s about time that people paid attention and give us the respect we deserve not only our abilities to run a country but our abilities of being a powerful force to be reckoned with not only in our personal lives but also in the boardroom!!……

lol I am glad someone else is noticing this because today i was watching and I saw this homo-erotic ad for lord of the rings where Frodo and Sam were hugging and talking about how they wanted to be together and the best part was ’secret lover’ was playing in the background. funny stuff.

yes yes yes, i think a female running the united states would be a much needed change. I would begin voting again if ANY woman ran. But I think that Hilary Clinton is a great candidate.

Looks like the Post should have done their homework:

The Bush movement is unburdened by behavioral standards

By the way, I highly recommend Glenn Greenwald’s blog. Great (although anger inducing) reading.

[...] What if we actually knew the women who were walking into the clinic where we stood outside protesting? What if their story meant something to us? We might find out that our assumptions about why they are there are wrong. [...]

[...] One thing before I sign off: security in one’s worldview (should read: system of belief) does not mean that you don’t listen to anyone else. It means that people are free to disagree (or even oppose you). Out of that freedom, some great conversations are born. [...]

I really appreciate your thoughtful comment. I like the aspect of *risk* involved in exploratory conversation. I was thinking mostly about people who immediately become defensive when they encounter a point of view contrary to their own (which you did not do, even though I wrote the most untrue thing you had seen all day : ) ).

You may find it interesting that I get more static from pro life folks than I do from anyone else because of my a-political approach.

Anyhow, I really do appreciate your time. If you do know anyone who would be willing to share their story, I would love to hear it…

Comment on Nutshell desktop aggregator by Bloggins

Bloggins — Tue, 29 Nov 2005 20:14:47 +0000

There’s a newer version posted since this review. I had no problem with a long list in a channel, and a river can be created by clicking the expand button to show all descriptions at the same time – coupled with the Today channel, and it’s a good newspaper. I’m not sure if it could handle the number of blogs in your opml, that would be a good test.

Comment on Next backup aggregator trial by Michael Gerasimov

Dear Cori,
My excuses, the bug related to OPML importing is very awful, I have to agree. It is fixed in the forthcoming 2.1 release of Omea. Concerning the possibilities to navigate the available feeds, I would admit that not all features of Omea are very intuitive or visible at first glance – there are many possibilities to narrow your view both by categories and dates and whatever the criterion is necessary for you.
Do not hesitate to write you opinion to us – this may help to make Omea more suitable for your need.

with kind regards, Michael Gerasimov, JetBrains Omea devo.

I saw that you commented on support.opml.org – I received the same error as you had earlier, but I didn’t figure out how to fix it. Could you publish a screenshot or – better – a screencast showing what you mean in your follow-up comment there?

Comment on Thanks, Gary… by cori

no worries at all.

When I adopted Cori as my name (it’s not, really) it never occurred to me, but apparently that spelling is a more typically female one.

Comment on OPML Validator case-unfriendliness by cori

cori — Wed, 16 Nov 2005 05:09:23 +0000

George; You're absolutely right, I could have linked to their sites (or the pages that linked to the white papers and what-not) in the OPML file. My initial hope, though, was to provide a dynamic reading list, along the lines of Dave's concept. Hope that clarifies my frustration.

Comment on OPML Validator case-unfriendliness by cori

cori — Wed, 16 Nov 2005 04:51:45 +0000

Dave, thanks for the comments. I must (shamefully) admit that I've never made it through the entire XML spec, but should have heeded your multiple references to it before opining about this. Now that you've reminded me, I recall that once I knew that XML is case-sensitive. When I look at the spec I don't see anything explicit that says that entities or attributes are case-sensitive except the contents of the Letter definition, although since the character cases are differentiated by the codes listed there I'd have to say that means case-sensitivity.

Interestingly, while hunting this down, I saw this:

"Names beginning with the string "xml", or with any string which would match (('X'|'x') ('M'|'m') ('L'|'l')), are reserved for standardization in this or future versions of this specification." (link)

Would OPML's "xmlUrl" conflict with this?

In any case, right you are; easy to solve. Just a matter of Read-The-Frelling-Spec ;-)

George Girton — Tue, 15 Nov 2005 17:47:51 +0000

I thought that OPML could also provide links to websites. What I mean is, on elliptical you were noting that only 4 of the under the radar presenters had blogs or rss feeds. But couldn’t opml file have links to the sites and white papers? That was my understadning.

cheers!~

Comment on OPML Validator case-unfriendliness by Dave Winer

Dave Winer — Tue, 15 Nov 2005 15:06:08 +0000

I think this is easy to resolve — XML is case-sensitive, not a decision I made, but it is, read the spec. The OPML Editor programming environment is not case-sensitive, it would require a lot of work to make it so. The validator is right. And so is the OPML Editor. ;->
