Me too. So many of my plans are complicated no end by their very existence.

# No no no,
Pooey Death Foxes.
I think it's something about the stench of shit and the killing things that annoys me.

# Comma, my dear sweet young thing,
if it is on the internet and it doesn't piss you off then the world is about to end.

# Because its the "web standard"
and they're shit.

# how is pdf
the web standard? It's a portable document file, and not anywhere as prevelant as a .doc file, which IS the industry standard.

# weeeell...
it all rather depends which industry, now, doesn't it?

# because
they take fucking ages to load and no-one knows why they don't just use a word file instead.

# No need.
I'm all of the manly, I just have shirtlifter mates and have broadened my horizons ;)

"shirtlifters" indeed, tsk :)

# What?
My mates are happy to be called shirtliffters and uphill gardeners, it's what they do, bless 'em. I think you will find that homosexuals are not so offended by words but more by intent.

# yikes - it works for me
Are you by any chance using IE5 and OS9?
(sticks Errol flynn in female form, Thu 8 Sep 2005, 23:22, archived)
# no, Firefox and XP
i just realized that it works from the main page. its coming from the 'all about' page that you get that error.

# next issue is going to be about people's insane optimism in the face of evidence
It'll be called the fictional science issue - am getting the visuals together now

# Cool
look forward to it.

how often are you putting these out?

# when we can get it together
which, as we all work full time, seems to be about once every three months.

Constantly on the verge of jacking in work to spend time making it pay. Only small vestiges of commom sense prevent me

# Why not provide a subsription-only hard copy through a small printers
and then use that to subsidise putting hard copies on shelves. Im sure there are magazines that are far less interesting out there that manage to make a start.

Also, sponsorship and advertising is always a good thing. small places dont pay much but enough to cover printing costs. People tend to expect it in magazines aswell so it doesnt detract from readership

# I know
All these things take time, it's just getting some seems to be the problem

A poor excuse I know - we will do it - watch this space...
