[00:03:04] <Bytram> Carny: thanks for bringing those to our attention. You will notice that if you load the main page, https://soylentnews.org and look for the slashbox on the RHS (Right Hand Side) titled "Most Recent Journal Entries", that they will not appear there until they have earned enough Karma through either having stories accepted and/or comments modded up. ISTR that it requires something like a karma of at least 7 but am not certain (more
[00:03:04] <Bytram> than 0 and less than 10 ismy recollection)

[00:12:26] <Bytram> thanks to you, there is a discussion that is ongoing, don't be surprised if you see a story in the next few days that mentions it. =)
[00:53:34] <Bytram> chromas: just subbed a breaking story about a large earthquake that hit southern california this morning. Not sure if you want to keep it as breaking or not, but if you *do*, should go out as next-in-line.

[02:27:31] <Bytram> That has to be some of the funniest prose I have read in a long time!
[02:28:49] <chromas> He's not accounting for quotation marks
[02:38:56] <Bytram> or much else, but as a screed against the unknowing masses, it is a brilliant treatise on passing on the message that was intended to be conveyed -- certainly memorable! (Well, maybe not the exact wording, but an awareness of its general message and tone.)
[02:40:09] <chromas> I hadn't read the good part yet
[02:57:31] <Bytram> time for me to get ready for bed...
