Since some don't read Press.

I cobbled together a rough *very* basic html version of the Nilly Firefly reviews site at nilly.shriftweb.org to serve as a placeholder until I can recreate the whole shebang that I helped out with back in the day.

I hope to have it restored to pre-attack status for Shrift soon.

Meanwhile, Shrift has put it on-line, and I will tweak it over the next few days to make it look even halfway presentable again.

The important thing is that all of Nilly's Firefly reviews are accessible in one place again.

YAY Daniel!

Thanks, Daniel.

I'ma going to pull it all into Dreamweaver, soon. then I can get rid of the frelling MS Frontpage-induced choppyness of the font.

Shiny! Thanks, Daniel. I've been meaning to dig up those reviews, and this makes it easy.

"Do you know what the first rule of flying is?"

We don't talk about flying?

Also? It's the second rule too, right?

Fighting.

We don't talk about fighting.

But flying talky is okay.

Also, the second rule of flying is no steering with your knee, and definitely no steering with invisible controls and hoping no one notices.

I thought it was to fall and miss the ground.

I thought it was to fall and miss the ground.

Indeed.

The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy has this to say on the subject of flying. There is an art, it says, or rather a knack to flying. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss. Pick a nice day, it suggests, and try it. The first part is easy. All it requires is simply the ability to throw yourself forward with all your weight, and the willingness not to mind that it's going to hurt. That is, it's going to hurt if you fail to miss the ground. Most people fail to miss the ground, and if they are really trying properly, the likelihood is that they will fail to miss it fairly hard. Clearly, it's the second point, the missing, which presents the difficulties.
