Who's Ted? I'm Ted!
I was amused to see a story about me in a slashdot entry. Certainly I have some opinions on the Amazon blogging issue
:-)
Here's my homepage (including my notes about the Seattle P-I article) and here's my blog entry about this. I'll continue revising it.

Re:Deforestation?!?!
Yes, because grass and soybeans are purple. In addition a square
kilometer is pretty damn large, let alone 8x8 km. In many places
cutting is done in patchwork for one reason or another.

Getting the numbers to be sortable
A few people complaining about the fact that the person put the numbers in the same column as the Song Title, here's an easy way to fix if you have a word processor that can do find/replace:
1. Get a plaintext version.
2. Replace all instances of " (" (thats a space and open parantheses) with a Tab.
3. Replace all instances of ")" with nothing.
4. Import into a spreadsheet program (practically every single one will do tab-delimeted fields).
Annoying to have to do it but dead simple. -
Re:Too bad they don't know how to use spreadsheetsSo you break it into text, then use sed and grep. What's the problem?
:-)The real spreadsheet abuse was loading it into a spreadsheet in the first place. What's wrong with a text file, or a pretty HTML tabled version, considering it was posted to a website? I blame that on the webmasters of Slyck News, whoever they are.
