I cancelled the 2 edits with the most insanity, asking that everyone instead use the energy to vet a few new add edits. I got back, "when I first had a look at the Bob Marley CotM and questioned some of the changes you and mo were proposing, my views were dismissed out of hand and auto-edits took the place of any real debate.

oh, and ruaok: they may have released a new Mac version since I got out of the IT sales business, but as of 4 months ago, the only Mac version was standard

aiming for the business IT world... may be 7% Mac in the real world, but the IT world, outside of graphics editing, it's about 0.5% Mac

thanks - I've dug through it a little, but they don't have much of the old archival stuff
2007-06-17 16824, 2007
yllona
the gleaner goes back to the early 19th century, so you may want to drop an e-mail requesting an archive search if you can't acces from your local library

oddly enough, I was just trying to clean up one of his releases - ended up giving up on it, don't know his stuff well enough to get more done
BrianFreud: i'd drop a quick to the gleaner with specific questions, to see if they can point you to specific answers/refrences for marley trivia. the main goal would be recrut someone from the gleaner to assist with reggae on MB

I'm convinced half my unsorted crap is duplicates, and already in the database, just really badly tagged in the unsorted bin. Hoping getting the puids in makes those easy to find.
