    ... a few companies have tried putting similar devices in their company cars. The results have been similar for them all, less accidents, less maintenence cost and less fuel cost.

  4. Re:The dangers of noble efforts... on Linuxmusician.com Interviews LilyPond Authors · · Score: 1

    From the website FAQ:

    I don't want to learn another syntax. Now what?

    There are other options: it is possible to create the music in another format. Supported formats include

    * MIDI: LilyPond includes midi2ly, a program that translates a MIDI file to LilyPond.
    * ETF: LilyPond includes etf2ly, a convertor for the Finale ETF format (about ETF)
    * ABC: LilyPond includes abc2ly, a convertor for the popular ABC format (about ABC)
    * MusicXML. Guido Amoruso's xml2ly will convert MusicXML to LilyPond. (About MusicXML.).

    I want to have an Graphical User Interface!

    We have no time to also make a graphical user interface. Luckily, other people have filled the gap. The following programs have competent LilyPond export functions and are actively being developed.

    * NoteEdit
    * RoseGarden

    There are also different, non-graphical interfaces:

    * RUMOR is an interface to generate LilyPond input with a MIDI keyboard.
    * LyQI provides a piano-like keyboard interface using the normal keyboard in emacs. It can also use RUMOR.

    Bottom line is, lilypond is a base layer to build up on, see the Unix Philosophy.

  7. Re:Google is already using cookies to track usage on Google Tracking Frequent Users · · Score: 1

    I'm committed to a competitive marketplace in the sense of choosing the best service available, in this case google. You are free to put on a tinfoil hat and use altavista or, dare I say it, MSN search if you want.

    I saw a Radiohead video just yesterday.... :D

  9. Re:Gotta love the FUD on Kazaa CEO vs. Hilary Rosen · · Score: 1

    The article talks about the newest Rush cd... They are as far away from being MTV friendly as anything that can be called rock. This is a problem that isn't limited to popshit.

    LOL... I see someone has seen This Is Spinal Tap...

  11. Re:compared to say on French Government Bans Term 'E-Mail' · · Score: 1

    You also have to remember that because of all this import, english often has 2-3 names over simple terms, each one from a different source, while others have one. Cardiac(greek) - heart(germanic), aviation(latin) - flying(german).
