yes. First IE went, then I got 6 BSOD in rapid succession. I had to do a hard reboot.

Well it worked perfectly for me. I heard the marching bank rendition of my favorite tune from my #3 favorite movie, Tucker: The Man and His Dream. I saw the sculpture face morph using dissolve effects.

I use Netscape Communicator 4.5 on a Windows 95 machine.

This need to be verified by more kamikaze pilots. Then we'll have the ferocious Mote Lawyers bring a class action suit against tripod.

need=needs

1543. theDiva - 8/24/2000 1:52:56 AM

well, maybe it was just my dumb-ass system. Let me shut down all other apps and try again.

1544. theDiva - 8/24/2000 1:54:25 AM

okay! much better now. The Tiger Rag, and a picture of Uzmak making a scary face.

1545. PelleNilsson - 8/24/2000 2:02:03 AM

Good.

1546. CalGal - 8/24/2000 2:05:04 AM

I'm not going to try it, because when people post links that make my system crash I want to hunt them down and hurt them. And I'm quite fond of you, Pelle.

Pelle, I tried it just now with Explorer 5.0 and it worked great - it didn't take long to load at all, and I only have a 366MHz Processor, so looks to me like you've got it down.

Hey, is this website your baby, Pelle? Are you the God of the Mote?

1548. benwolf - 8/26/2000 1:19:42 PM

... or the Mote in God's Eye?

1549. PelleNilsson - 8/26/2000 7:02:20 PM

sincerity

No, no, no. The founders of this site are (in alphabetical order):

alistairconnor -- the Mote engine (data bases, etc)
CalGal -- the user interface
JayAckroyd -- provider of server space at no cost
JJBiener -- inspirator, enthusiast, designer of the logo.

For a brief history check here, and alistair's account of a hectic week a year ago is here..

Our supreme moderator is wabbit who mostly keeps in the background these days. She is the one who can create and delete threads. She also has the final say in any dispute related to the Mote.

I'm back (but not for long - headed to Zurich in a few hours)

1551. joezan - 8/26/2000 10:16:55 PM


Hey, Dusty!

Good to see you're still alive...

1552. sincerity454 - 8/27/2000 1:46:49 AM

Pelle -

Thank you for those links - what an amazing story!

1553. CalGal - 8/27/2000 1:53:42 AM

This is still unofficial, because I haven't linked it in and need to Real Soon Now, but here is our FAQs page.

1554. PelleNilsson - 8/27/2000 2:29:56 AM

Dusty

You must tell us about Kilimanjaro and Sereengeti when you get back.


CalGal

I like the FAQ. But I'm surprised at the complexity of ordering at Amazon and WH Smith.

1555. Rama - 8/31/2000 1:41:52 PM

I am only interested a bit of emphasis and the occasional bold statement.

1556. dusty - 8/31/2000 5:44:22 PM

Welcome to the Mote, Rama

1557. PelleNilsson - 8/31/2000 6:02:27 PM

And welcome back, Dusty! Do tell us about Kilimanjaro and Serengeti.

    One main item.
  1. Another main item.
    1. sub-item.
    2. another sub-item.
      1. sub-sub-item.
      2. another sub-sub-item.
        1. Yet another main item.


        I tried to copy Pelle's Message # 1520, as seen on Page Source—and I'm pretty sure I did so accurately—and this, this, is what I get. Hmmm. What's wrong?

        Also, is it possible to get (purposely) the indents without any numeration? For lineage in a poem, eg.

        It seems this must be leaving toys, but if my [bracket]/ol[close bracket] doesn't do it, I don't know how to put 'em away.
