So why does all this only affect your site though? Check that your bandwidth and hosting fees are being paid. It doesn't affect only my site, and I pay in advance for an entire year, with no bandwidth limits. If Google were more forthcoming about how to fix the problem, it'd be fixed; I've been goi...

Since April, we've been seeing sporadic reports of people not able to resolve our site (and email bouncing). The only reason we can find that this might be happening is that Google (and Google Public DNS) has made a change in the way they handle resolving domains - first, they have implemented a DNS...

The APL thing warms my geeky heart. I'm not an APL fan myself, but I've written enough FORTH and Haskell traveller utilities to root for another underdog. ;) Ooo, FORTH! Another language to play with that you can still find. And another candidate for domain-specific languages. /me finds it somewhat...

Yey for APL. What, you don't like Egyptian hieroglyphics as a write-only programming language? :) It seems appropriate to use a computer language that was used when Traveller was just a baby. And COBOL and FORTRAN listings would fill up the newsletter. Ha! COBOL certainly would, because of the DOCU...

Most of what's been mentioned in this thread, I'd be at worst neutral to (i.e., I'm not opposed to them). However, what I'd REALLY like to see is PRINTED VERSIONS OF THE MISSING YEAR-AND-A-HALF. Can someone point me to a complete list of Mongoose numbers for Traveller, and which ones were print vs e...

This is going to sound like the utmost heresy, but in MTU piracy is on the outs. Cybercrime is the most popular form of thievery going: hack into the cargo manifests, redirect the destinations of the choice cargoes, let them be dropped off at Warehouse 17 rather than Warehouse 4, and the job's done...
