My 80 year old mom is still quite active and travels a lot. She'd really like a portable GPS that she could use in her own car but also transfer to rentals. Anyone have suggestions? Keep in mind that she's 80.

I tried my Mom on a TomTom which would announce next turns and street names, but she found it way too confusing and nervous-making. Yes, she was afraid of upsetting the voice....
Your Mom May Vary.

TomTom has a feature where you can download alternate voices from their website. Maybe she just needed someone a little more understanding?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That annoying CSS refresh issue I was trying to fix for b.org a while back doesn't exist in google chrome. Hmmph.

More CSS questioning. If I have a list setup like this:
t ul class="class_list"
t li class="class_item"
List item
t /li
t /ul
How do I, in CSS, specify ::before, say, for the list item? It took me a million years to work out a way to specify a generic
t li
in this instance (ul.class_list li::before), but I keep breaking things trying to style the more complicated example.

Lurkers are like posting board ninjas!
ul.class_list li.class_item:before {...}
Should work. Also: according to this IE8 is not good with double colons. So I would recommend sticking with single colons for the standard selectors.

Thanks! I could have sworn I tried that. Probably something very similar. There's the rub.
