That's not a lemma. You didn't prove that gourmet root bear is tasty, you just stated it. You then failed to use it to prove another theorem.

In fact, your statement is much closer to a tautology. Since you specify good root bear, and since good means tasty in the context of a drink, what you have stated is that good root bear is good root bear. This is reflexively (and very obviously) true.

As ben said. The trend line is supposed to measure posts written, not actual posts stored on the board over time. That would be a bit useless.

What a place to spend a thousand. Your graph was not showing posts written per day/week/month, it was showing cumulative score. As such, the trend is always upwards. It would be infinitely (really) more informative if one could see the daily post count trend within a range of dates. That would likely show increases immediately before and during a new release, decreases until the Windows version comes out, a small increase, and then another increase in the summer when Ben gets out of school.

Also, this was my thousandth post. I'm so proud I could spit.

Thuryl - I'll have to disagree, the main reasons why Sailor Moon became popular were:
1) Horny boys looking at the girls naked before putting the sailor custome
2) Dumb 13 year old girls in love with Tuxedo Mask

Glad to hear it! Occasionally the SICTG™ spits out something effectively pleasing entirely by accident. I hope Spring is amused, because it might almost begin to make up for the unfortunate initial custom title the SICTG™ coughed up on his behalf.

Thanks Aran. Um, but what exactly is FTP and how do I use it to upload my files?

What I think I'll do is upload the files and then just display them on the website I already have made.

Somehow.

Observation alters the observed, right?

So wait- what's liberalism, but a belief in a society which respects all individuals' common rights above all else? The result of that is capitalism, which has created the same sort of aristocracy that conservatism has taken the chalice in defending.
