[02:15:51] <takyon> edited the oxford story. still need to check it because i couldn't load the oxford link
[02:16:26] * Bytram takes another look
[02:22:19] <Bytram> okay, the page is still loading for me, too: http://comprop.oii.ox.ac.uk
[02:22:38] <upstart> ^ 03Database Error
[02:23:21] <Bytram> so I copied the first two sentences from the blockquote and did a search for it (within quote characters) on duckduckgo.com and it came back with its first hit as being: http://comprop.oii.ox.ac.uk
[02:23:28] <upstart> ^ 03Database Error
[02:23:52] <Bytram> so, it *should* be the right link, but it looks like the site might be having errors?
[02:25:44] <Bytram> well, it took a long time, but it DID finally load for me.
[02:26:59] <takyon> k
[02:31:50] <Bytram> it seems to imbed an image of the first page of the 'report' which seems to be available as a pdf: http://comprop.oii.ox.ac.uk
[02:32:23] <Bytram> adding a link as an editor's note
[02:34:16] <takyon> i was able to load it
[02:34:21] <takyon> fixed typo in the headline too
