@nicolibrarian … and even with printed copies, don’t use highlighters much. Julie Starr deserves all the credit for helping you …
@nicolibrarian I have to admit that I know about the article and that’s about it. I don’t do much technical reading on the screen, …
@nicolibrarian do the instructions on page 2 of: http://oreilly.com/pub/a… not still work? Don’t have in front of me.

@robiobierto didn’t really check this one out, but I have seen escalators that had all the steps removed before.
@mrwtn865 and besides I’m on a bit of a tweeting spree, so if you post some stuff I won’t feel like quite the spammer.
@mrwtn865 Well I’m out of ideas on places, so you can probably go ahead.
to everyone posting line about escalators never being out of order just stairs. I saw it today, a sign for an out of order escalator. #fb

@summerMistine Wrong office, this was a discussion of Microsoft Office.
@nicolibrarian What kind of Pizza are you eating?!? Hope either the evening or at the very least tomorrow turns around for you.
@robiobierto oh, sorry, guess I was distracted thinking, “he should have used @summerMistine” to get your deeper meaning.
@summerMistine hope you get to feeling better
@robiobierto I may not always understand @summerMistine’s tweets but I think they usually have more meaning than that.
