h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

A slight problem with that plan - that Raven entry has 839 conversations attached to it. That's probably more than any other Edited Entry.

Only 330 entries left to be looked at.

So...




So... How much content are you absorbing as you scan every one of 10,000 plus entries? How often do you find one that grabs your attention and read?

BTW, the was because of another conversation regarding the introductory use of the word "so".

I shouldn't have explained that... carry on.

So... anything to do with Seamus Heaney's translation of Beowulf?

My "scanning" is not as impresdive as it sounds. I'm just checking that the entry displays without giving the "oops can't find your entry" error or the "invisible entry" problem. Once I see a few lines of the entry, I move on. But if there are typos at the start, I will see them, as I have the gift of seeing misspellings without reading the text.

Mind you, I often see something interesting and start reading - hence a few factual corrections over the last few weeks.

"Gift"?... or curse?

Good question

You are the salt of the earth. You preserve h2g2 from rotting away.

I've checked all the Edited Guide now.

Well done!

I've done enough maintenance work for now.

I'll be on holidays on and off for the next few weeks, so it might be a good time to put my thoughts to some writing.

Have a holiday! Do nothing! Constitutionally impossible?
