Now the only question is - will Leonard show us his results?

Raining in Amsterdam

Wednesday, August 25th, 2004

It hasn’t stopped raining in Amsterdam since we arrived on Saturday.

Legal Ephemera images

Tuesday, August 24th, 2004

I got into trouble with Derek Powazek when I posted one of his BEAUTIFUL images - without giving him the proper credit.
So after a scolding and a couple of back and forths - Derek now has a formal ‘image widget’ which he asks folks to use - when posting his images.
