[23:29:20] <FatPhil> OK, doesn't work on my phone.
[23:29:59] <FatPhil> can someone check that I've not fucked up the GHG in the CO2 story, please?
[23:31:11] <fyngyrz> looks fine, but you missed a 2nd instance

[23:31:15] <fyngyrz> want me to fix?
[23:31:44] <FatPhil> I only believe in defining on 1st use
[23:31:51] <Bytram> agreed.
[23:32:58] <fyngyrz> I have confidence the question might arise in someone's mind at any point in their reading, so I do them all. Doesn't hurt anything, makes things easier all around.
[23:33:30] <fyngyrz> one more thing, Bytram doesn't like mods to quoted sections. So now you have to deal with that. :)
[23:33:41] <Bytram> fyngyrz++ lol!
[23:33:41] <Bender> karma - fyngyrz: 13
[23:33:52] <Bytram> oooh not-so-good-number there
[23:33:58] <Bytram> fyngyrz++ just because
[23:33:58] <Bender> karma - fyngyrz: 14
[23:33:58] <FatPhil> I'm trying to get tired enough to sleep, and I was scratching my bonce for way too long while reading that, so thought it was worth expansion.
[23:34:03] <fyngyrz> perfectly lovely number, I'm all for it
[23:34:10] <Bytram> oh? Okay
[23:34:12] <fyngyrz> that one too :)
[23:34:23] <Bytram> fyngyrz-- Happy to oblige.
[23:34:24] <Bender> karma - fyngyrz: 13
[23:34:27] <Bytram> ;)
[23:34:31] <fyngyrz> coolnitch
[23:34:36] <Bytram> rofl
[23:34:50] <FatPhil> considered an [editorial insertion], but then I remembered abbr
[23:35:15] <Bytram> FatPhil++ You guys are great!
[23:35:15] <Bender> karma - fatphil: 10
[23:35:52] <FatPhil> yay for insomnia!
[23:36:23] <fyngyrz> I would totally count sheep if I could
[23:36:23] <Bytram> I dunno... let me sleep on it?
[23:38:35] <fyngyrz> FatPhil, my code for for Soylent handles both insertion of abbr tags, and editorial notes if needed. TMB hasn't felt the urge to integrate it though, so unless you have a website of your own to install the app on... it's immigrant style: Manuel Labor.
[23:38:49] <fyngyrz> Me, I just use the app.
[23:39:23] <fyngyrz> TTo be fair, TMB is rethunking a church
[23:39:31] <fyngyrz> but maybe someday
[23:39:37] <fyngyrz> I did my part :)
[23:40:01] <fyngyrz> even ported it to freaking perl, which left me bleeding from the synapses
[23:40:30] <fyngyrz> and on that note...
[23:40:34] * fyngyrz wanders off
[23:41:04] * FatPhil does html through manual labour, because reasons
