You put the > before what you want quoted.
GUaranteed to be a x-post.
It's because you didn't have a strong father figure isn't it?

Spike's Bitches 21 Gunn Salute
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Isn't it more that *numbers* are constant -- 2 apples will always be 2 apples and not twice as many, not ever -- but that the *symbols* used to describe them are arbitrary? The 2, the 4, the i?
Well, define 2. Not the symbol, but the concept it's signifying. There's nothing physical you can point to and say, "That's a 2." You can do math as just a symbolic way of describing the physical world -- 2 is the concept of one object plus another of the same object -- but that gets pretty limited pretty quickly. There gets to be a point where you're using the numbers to represent pure concepts that can't be represented physically.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It's all here, in the link above the posting box.

Thanks, ita. Somehow I missed that quick edit.

Since I am going to do my first webpage, this is all extremely useful info. Thanks.

Can't you do that with sufficient repetitions of two objects? Sufficient to distance it from the object itself, and instead focus on the quantity? It's not even that 2 is the concept of one object plus another of the same object, unless you spend a fair amount of time defining "same" and "object" which seem to be much harder than 2.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Yesterday morning before work it was -15 F here, with -30 F windchill. It had gotten down to -18 F overnight, apparently.
Today it rose to a balmy 4 above.
I went for a walk.
I also noticed fresh bicycle tire tracks in the snow.
WTF?

None of the quickedits work in most of the real world (we stole the WebCrossing ones and expanded a little). You'll need to use my intermediate steps in my wordy post.
