< A1068914 >"

Thanks, Traveller. Those are unedited ones, which the authors never got around to putting into the Edited Guide. The Edited Guide is the one that you get to by following the Life, The Universe and Everything links from the Front Page.

"I know, I just had to spoil the entry less then a minute after editing with this prepared list of previous 'attempts'. "

Traveller in Time in his hand
"I think we are just waiting for the writers block to start dumping some entries into the peerpool.

Any idea when it will be scheduled?"

Sorry, I didn't understand that at all.

"Well, we produce some two entries a day, hardly managing to enter them.
Dumping some into the peer review pool would increase the refurbishing load for 'older' entries, completely blocking any productivity.
As long as the new ideas keep bubbling over we have no time left to get blocked by such. Running days of fourty two hours is a tough job you know."

Traveller, I still don't know what you are saying.

>>Well, we produce some two entries a day
OK - two or three new entries are published on the Front Page each day

>>hardly managing to enter them.
What does this mean?

I presume you mean you are very busy.

Ah, I begin to understand. WHen you say "we", you mean "I". You're talking about your own entries. That's a lot of entries. I only have about 100 unedited ones, and I tend to work on five or six at a time, preparing them for Peer Review.

Traveller in Time on his head
"Ok, after selection some hundred seem to be editable (sounds like consuming them), though I would not like the others to have left out.
Nb the 'we' is entirely BBC as they addres you as they, disguising the gender."

But "I" would also disguise the gender.

"
We are as many as we like
We are as nuts as possible
We are 'Traveller in Time'
We are not 'Traveller in Time'
We refuse to sign out
We use sp<./>info</.>il to wrap any occasion
We know tomorrow as we are today
But we will stay on yesterday

"Did I mention < A2171305 >?"

It's wrong, though. Milliard was never used in the British system. The term was "thousand million".

Sure ? (that happens rarely)
