Has anyone seen a h2g2 Quote of the Day?
'h2g2 is like a dusty library full of well-upholstered, well-used armchairs and gentle table lamps creating intimate circles of light, in a world of brightly lit, noisy communal spaces. '

Well, I suppose I have now. But at the time, QOTD was in limbo.
This is fun - if I find two or three at once, I can post them all in one post. For your amusement. Not much happening yet, though, is there.
Here - have another

Possibly not original, but apt.

Is it actually possible to post a link to a particular posting that works in Pliny?

Not yet. See Post 37 ff in this thread http://h2g2.com/dna/h2g2/classic/F21546918?thread=8309101&skip=20&show=20 There you go - I've posted the whole URL. If I tried to convert it to Pliny I'd probably get it wrong.

regarding post 12:
I thought it was original. Oh, well, if someone else said it first, then great minds think alike .

>>Is it actually possible to post a link to a particular posting that works in Pliny?<< - Gnomon Yes there is. http://h2g2.com/forums/A148907/conversation/view/F19585/T8309124/page/1/#P13 If you're viewing a thread in Pliny, you can just copy the URL through the Fxxxx/Txxx/ then append it with the page and post number as above. It's clunky, but it works.
