A fellow makes himself conspicuous when he throws soft-boiled eggs at the electric fan.

Nilly, that is a very good question, and I don't know the answer. I will find out. Technically, I think it must be possible, but practically, if having this constraint means that the corpora programmer has to do a lot of fancy post-processing, it may mean that we can't be used.

It might be a while before I can know this -- a week or so.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I was thinking Bitches, for example, has more personal info than any of the others. Natter, the Music, Fic, and Movie threads, and the show/spoiler threads would probably be the most valuable.

Um, Natter can get fairly personal, too. Though I like the idea.

And, smiggle!

Up with the sun

I like the idea, too. Do we need to do a lightbulbs vote on this?

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Considering the anonymousness (that's not a word, is it?), I honestly wouldn't care if even very personal things I'd discussed were used. It's not like other people haven't had albino children or evil, but well-meaning, parents.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

anonymousness (that's not a word, is it?)

Anonymity. (Which doesn't look like a word now that I've typed it.)

I'm in favor of the project.

Now tagless for your comfort.

It's not like other people haven't had albino children or evil, but well-meaning, parents.

Or asshead bosses.

I'm very much in favor of the project.

I typed anonymity and it didn't look right to me either, so I figured I'd go for quirky crazy but endearing.

Huh. Didn't work, did it?

I like anonymousness. It's fun to say.

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty

I like the idea. It's foamy.

AM!

I've been thinking about you for the last few days and missing you lots. (Oops, I'm nattering, but.. it's Am!)
