@ppatel Makes sense. Would love real-world samples, thank you so much! cc: @stevefaulkner @stcaccess @sarahebourne
@julielerman Thanks for the book rec! "Oryx and Crake" from @MargaretAtwood splits a speculative world into "number" and "word" people. :)

@FunkyLarma @boagworld I have an upcoming article in .net in January. Entire section on this very issue called "Font of Folly" :)

@matto Yeah, and medical insurance and etc. etc. - Back to freelancing with an eye on longer-term academic work, much happier situation now.

@matto I, too, had to learn that lesson a very hard way, and later in life as I'd worked for myself for my entire career. Now I realize why.
@boagworld - we'll see more implementations as CSS Paged Media becomes more widespread. Widows and orphan control is essential in PM.

@matto That's honest. I could see that happening to me. Glad you learned and got out of it.

@matto But not a saboteur, surely? Perhaps a complainer ;)

@SailorjX I'll look for 'em. Subway was one of the very first companies to have a web site AND advertise the URL in their TV campaigns. :)
