(...) Yeah, that's what he meant :P (...) It's not that it's incorrect. That _is_ how Israelis say the name of the country - in Hebrew. However, we never write it like that in English.

umm.... is there a reason why Israel is misspelled? I was looking for it to join, and missed it - it never occured to me to look for it under "Y". any chance it could be corrected? :) Dan (25 years ago, 29-Feb-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  web posting
 
Well, since I've been posting through the web interface lately a lot (silly broken eudora), I had some thoughts on changes to it. How about, since lugnet already gives me a cookie (to keep me logged in), storing in it my "name" "email" and "org" so (...) (25 years ago, 29-Feb-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
