Thankyou. I was extremely happy with this - much happier than most columns I do - especially given it was written last minute.

Someone should kill the lingering </P> tag.

Nice article.  I generally agree.

It's all about Sehnsucht

No.

Hmmm, Jam has an iPod? But yeah, cool article. I myself have been doing a lot of walking around lately. I walk to school when I can and walk to the shops on the streets. I'll even go out walking to see what I can see to photograph. Yes, walking, quite the thing we've got there. Quite a thing.

You know there's not point in us moving to XHTML if you people keep on using caps for your HTML tags.  Though I guess it doesn't matter much since I'm probably going to have to write a code that updates all the articles to the new standards sometime.

I use caps because HTML is supposed to use caps. I mean real HTML, not this new corporate rubbish they call HTML.

yes but if you're going to the effort of closing all tags like I've asked because we're switching to XHTML why do you still post in the code in caps which isn't XHTML compliant?

It's a moot point for now I guess since we haven't switched yet and I'm going to have to do some program that can change things around since I have no desire to go and update 1000 articles to XHTML by hand.

yeah, HTML never required closing the <P> tag, Jam. or is this some idealistic, "indie" HTML you speak of?

Sehnsucht is a German word for something like "longing", what C.S. Lewis called "Romanticism".

It's how you can look at nature and feel something tugging at you, like there's something more to life.

I thought Sehnsucht just meant jealousy. That's not very Romantic.
