someone a while back asked for a definition of "binary walk". Gar provided one here.

'Twas I. Thanks, Jon (and Gar).

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Shouldn't the repurposed Book Club be opened now (not that I have the book, but it's past midnight on the east coast)?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Okay. I did it. All hail the power of consensus.

Is my spoiler warning enough? Too much? Is it irritating to have the bold in the slug or does it mess anything up?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Looks fine. You'd know you were going to get spoilers when you went over there to subscribe. And since it's in the slug you don't see it all the time.

Thanks!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Well, the thing I worry about is that people may have still been subscribed to the closed thread and not know about it. I better go post in press, too.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Bold looks fine. And Press is a good idea too. Better one-post spam than sorry, in this case.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Okay. There. I also put the first post as a warning, so that should give eye-aversion time for those just hitting Read New.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Voting is still open for almost seven hours.

It's 12:00am in Israel. Nilly probably won't have them counted until the morning.
