      Judging by some posts it definitely is, but now I have regrettably added to that scenario (but Andy has my permission to pull my post if it goes against the spirit of that thread)

  9. Andy Y

    has just compiled the last pages in MI2; just the index and hyperlinks to do now. I'll leave that for tomorrow or I'll foul it up as I'm into my 2nd Weston's 2010 Vintage. :)

      Can I suggest you call it MI003 or similar so they appear in numeric order when we save them locally? Boring but practical

      Blogs tend to go invisible after a while. Would this cull mean the end of blogs and blogets?

    has just had a monumentally ignorant and rude email. From a senior scientist working for Camridge Uni with a PhD who seems to have trouble with a basic registration process. He won't need a mass spectrometer to work out he won't be here long.
