  Fixing OE wrapping in news and mail
 
One of my friends pointed me to OE-QuoteFix ((URL) which reformats messages displayed in OE to fix line wrapping in quoting that OE is particularly bad at. By default the reformat isn't turned on, you have to enable it, but it also colours each (...) (22 years ago, 14-May-02, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: question about the metric system
 
(...) I reckon that if this is true, it would greatly depend on the type of wood that the cutting board is made of, the age of the board (e.g. a new board would have a greater amount of tannins and other allelopathic(1) compounds), what type of (...)

  Re: Possible virus sending large emails?
 
Yep, same here. I've been getting about 3-4 a day to my LEGO email address, they're pretty easy to spot so I haven't had any infections from them....yet. jt (...) (22 years ago, 7-May-02, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Possible virus sending large emails?
 
(...) Yep, I got back into work today to find that I had apparently sent emails containing it to Tony Kilaras, Larry P and Scott S (which is very strange as I don't think I've ever emailed Scott). I've told my helpdesk and await an answer. Sorry to (...) (22 years ago, 7-May-02, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) I don't think I've seen this one yet - though I've been getting more and more of a different kind (I think) - one with a random subject, and some sort of .exe attachment launched by an iframe... of course, waste of CPU for them to try to (...)

  Possible virus sending large emails?
 
Hello, I've been recieving several large emails (117K to 125K) at an account I use for just Lego communications. Most appear to be from people I've emailed about Lego. My research shows a recent virus worm is gaining ground. Here's the info on (...) (22 years ago, 7-May-02, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: question about the metric system
 
(...) Well, it sounds reasonable. And I've used both plastic and wooden cutting boards, from which I chose the latter. Pedro (22 years ago, 6-May-02, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: question about the metric system
 
(...) Can't put it better than Abe Simpson: "Yes I said the metric system is the devil. My car gets 40 rods to the hog's head, and that's the way I likes it." :-) -Chris (22 years ago, 6-May-02, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Wood and bacteria (was: question about the metric system)
 
(...) The one I read not too long ago wasn't that they were killed by the wood, but that when they got in there, it was just under the surface of the wood. On the plastic boards they live on the surface so it's easier for them to get into your food. (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-02, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: question about the metric system
 
(...) Oh brother. Anti-american might be a bit strong, but a surprised reaction isn't unexpected. If someone asked you how tall you are and you said "I'm 1.6 ells," you'd get a weird look, too. Dave! (22 years ago, 6-May-02, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: question about the metric system
 
(...) I remember reading something in one of my dad's (surely totally unbiased) woodworking magazines a while ago about how wooden cutting boards are actually better than plastic ones -- the plastic boards get little cuts all over where the bacteria (...)

  Re: Instant Messaging Question?
 
(...) yah, I use it when I'm forced to boot to windows. I think you can get it at www.trillian.cc, and it is pretty cool. I saw it mentioned today on a lame CNN report...
