Cool article.  Though we should get the correct author in there since I know SE didn't write the thing.  So Shrain, what name you want used?

SE just wishes *he* had written it, that's all. ;)

Thanks, Sprigg! :) Let's see... I guess I figured I'd go with the flow and just have Shrain as the byline under the article. Seems like most everyone uses their screen names so it's fine by me.

Oh, and can we maybe put an "e" after "Ther" on the link? I like the "and then some" intro, by the by.

meh. When you don't submit it yourself, you get what's coming to you.

ha! I submitted it myself--can't help that I haven't been bestowed with admin powers or that I haven't quite the magical touch with html. But, hey, at least I did the paragraphs and italic thingies.

By "submitting it yourself" i mean using the submit an article (http://www.timewastersguide.com/edit.php?page=articles) page which automatically attaches the submitters name/address to it, though you can change that.

meep. Point taken. But, uh, I thought you told me to just email it right to you anyway. (shrug) eh, well it looks great. I'm happy.

i may have said that, but then I wouldn't have an excuse for not having changed it to your name. so I obviously didn't.
