sleepy...

It is late once again, but I am still up. *sigh* You would think that I would learn. I have to be early tomorrow so that I can get off early. I am going to go out with Laura because today she found out that she got into med school at U of O. I am really happy for her. This means that she doesn't have to write the MCAT exams again. From everyone that I have ever spoken to, those are to be feared above all else.

Does anyone else think that when I go to www.asciitable.com they have an ASCII table, but as an image? I think that is really funny. Maybe I am just to much a nerd, or that really is ironic.

If anyone wants to make comments, right now you have to enter in a email address... don't bother. Just put in some crap that looks like an email address. I will fix that shortly. I'm too out of it to figure out where to turn it off right now.

    Done -- comments can be anonymous now. I hate that too.
    They probably made the ASCII table an image so they could put the vertical lines in. Otherwise they would have to put the ASCII text in a table and it would render slowly and look like ASS. That's my guess. :)
    Kind of a pain if you're using a non-graphical browser though. The image doesn't even have an ALT attribute! :|

    And if you try and right click on the image (to save it) they have a message saying that it is copy righted... so bad.
    hee hee... "look like ASS"

    Yeah, It's an image so you can't copy it, and there's a nice watermark on the image. of course you could just printscreent it, and then probably do some OCR. Can you actually copyright the ascii table? isn't that public knowledge or something? This just seems wrong that they claim they own copyright to it.

    what do you mean you can't copy it?
    Right click on the edge and drag the mouse so you avoid the popup... (then just Save-As). Works fine for me. :)
