[edit] Re: Thanks!
Glad to be of any service. I've run into enough angry people that I usually don't take the time to wonder where they're coming from -- too busy implementing the Wikipedia:Revert, block, ignore school of thought in most circumstances. But, if you can find the root of the problem, sometimes a more amicable solution can be reached. Feel free to let me know if you have any more problems. Luna Santin 08:31, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Short story task force question
Not sure that the placing of the wikisource link is hugely significant and I don't have a strong opinion on it. I might be worth asking the question in the wider Novels Project General forum. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 07:49, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] W&J query
re: your query
Personal question... I noticed a tag for this user for W&J College. Are you an alumnus? And I noticed you were tagged as a native/former resident of Massachusetts. It seems that those two worlds seldom meet, but I'm glad I'm not the only one! Midnightdreary 05:37, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
- Hi! You're right, as far as I know, it's just you and me... but haven't looked in ages, nor looked at that shelved page. I should clean that up in all likelihood.
- Actually I'm a retro-colonist--my horse went eastwards mistaking the sunrise for the sunset with typical Polish-Lithuanian logic. <g> I've been a resident of Massachusetts since '78, but I don't know that that tag connoted 'native'... perhaps it evolved since I played with user tags... that was all of three days or so back long ago now. I really don't have much use for them, but they did give me an introduction to templates.
- I actually got introduced to New England by dating W&J co-ed classmates from here in the Boston Area--when I was there at W&J the girl:guy ratio was 1 gal for every 20 guys, as it was just two years into being a co-ed school. (More by email) Thanks for triggering some good memories! Best wishes // FrankB 13:37, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

- Looking over your user page, seems I better get busy on finishing that user box for a W&J user template... I have to infer you're apparently still enrolled. I downloaded the graphics I needed somewhere on my desk top computer at the office, and never got around to stealing my sons graphics CD to put things together into a proper school logo.

- If so, you're living in my back yard so to speak surrounded by loads of my relatives. My sister's an alumni too, and would probably welcome you for an Easter dinner if you have wheels and no other plans. She's a veterinarian in Belle Vernon.

- It may shock you to hear this, but I A.P'd out of most English courses at W&J thanks to superb SATs and achievement tests in same... something I regret from time to time these days with the prevalence of cites and all here now. I could use more practice doing research papers.
