527. PelleNilsson - 10/23/1999 8:47:38 PM For those who wonder what I'm doing. I'm experimenting with importing .jpg files into PowerPoint, adding information, saving as .jpg, uploading to the web site and publishing them here. It involves some juggling but it can be done.
The context is that I'm reading a book dealing with the study of large technical systems, a field that was pioneered by the American historian Robert P. Hughes in his books Networks of Power: Electrification in Western Society 1880-1930 and American Genesis: A Century of Invention and Technological Enthusiasm.
The enlarged picture shows a megasystem, several large systems that interact with, and are dependent upon, each other. 528. emily - 10/25/1999 9:02:25 AM just trying this 529. joezan - 10/25/1999 10:36:32 AM A friend e-mailed this to me... it's sorta funny, if you think about it...
(...it may take a bit to load, but I promise - it's worth it).

As stinky was my Table Talk slave name, I've decided to adopt a new moniker that more closely reflects my ethnic and cultural origins and my liberation experience as a creature in the brave new world of the Mote. 531. dusty - 10/26/1999 8:04:03 AM emily
Are you new? If so welcome.
Don't hesitate to ask for help. Some of us don't bite. 532. dusty - 10/26/1999 8:06:15 AM joezan
It failed to load for me. 533. joezan - 10/26/1999 8:56:44 PM
dusty:
It does for me...did my link get you to the Angelfire page? You need to click on the link there. It takes a while, because it's an .mpe file. But, like I said, it's worth it.
534. Dusty - 10/27/1999 12:49:12 AM Joe, I got to the angel fire page. When i clicked on the link, Windows media player opened, but then I got an error. 535. mmmWaffles - 10/27/1999 11:38:22 AM testing

Remember to add the Width command, with a value no larger than 425 (to preserve the margins)
544. ChristiPeters - 10/28/1999 11:43:50 PM Well! That's better!
(BTW thanks to whoever deleted my mistake!) 545. Dusty - 10/28/1999 11:45:40 PM Much better, and a cute picture.
548. PsychProf - 10/28/1999 11:58:28 PM Christi...why not test in the dust mode? 549. Dusty - 10/29/1999 12:01:51 AM This is Cleo the Huntress, Empress of the Universe and In Charge of It All:
