            Sorry, I was still in my own semi-real world when I wrote that.... D&D = Dungeons And Dragons, a role playing game, and d8 = 8 sided die. Normal dice are d6's. Also, d4, d6, d8, d10, d20, d% (2x d10s), and last but not least - d2, a coin. Don't worry about not getting that - I was just being amused at my inner geek. Due to unpredictable work commitments, I haven't played in almost a decade... Iain.

                  hmm true in a sense but it isn't a composite like Web 2.0 is. There is no chance they can get Web or 2.0 as marks and the combination is dubious at best. regards, Paul Watson Ireland FeedHenry needs you

                          Dungeons and Dragons according to Wikipedia[^] and the official page.[^] It most definitley is not a TV thing. It is a role playing board game system. Very cool if a bit... uhh... geeky. regards, Paul Watson Ireland FeedHenry needs you

                              how about Web 2.1 - must be due for a minor revision release by now. And it'll be wonderful once we get to version 3.0 - or 3.1, 3.11 then we could have the 95 and 98 editions - strange feeling of deja vu - never mind I am sure it'll go away.

                              I'll be more enthusiastic about encouraging thinking outside the box when there's evidence of any thinking going on inside it. - pTerry

                                    What is an interesting thing is that someone announces on the blog[^] that the story hit slashdot and the quality of the comments goes straight into the gutter. I think that says a lot about the people that frequent slashdot.
