Pawpad <i>is</i> younger in age than, say, the safe median of SL (though my only proof to that is that I've seen the name for over a year now and again)--still, it does seem rather a naive question overall.<br /><br />Still, at least there is connection between "B" and "J" on chairs, and the concept? I'm reminded of the first season of <i>Bones</i> where Dr. Temperance Brennan frequently said, "I have no reference for that." (In her case, she meant it--she rarely saw films in theatres, did not watch television [to my understanding, the real Dr. Brennan still doesn't], and had spent so much time internationally or in a lab that even common phrases went past her at times.)<br /><br />Of course, that's a case of specialization, not naivete. There likely is a difference.Emilly Orrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07245643246821826101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2135301473915671680.post-12098524791501063642010-09-22T08:31:23.548-07:002010-09-22T08:31:23.548-07:00At first, I had trouble believing that M.

Back in high school, when I was temping during the summer, several of us worked with a nice young girl from a rather sheltered background. I can't recall her name(s), but she went by her initials: BJ. She had no idea why the rest of us found this funny, and we couldn't figure out a way to explain it. I assume she eventually learned on her own.Rhianon Jamesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13627163137265856251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2135301473915671680.post-37811656298287535232010-09-21T19:55:48.633-07:002010-09-21T19:55:48.633-07:00Emerald did have their own KDU version, emkdu.dll,...Emerald <i>did</i> have their own KDU version, emkdu.dll, which--in my opinion--was backward-engineered from llkdu to get past the Lab's restrictions.<br /><br />Yet <i>another</i> thing to be pissed at them for, really...Emilly Orrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07245643246821826101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2135301473915671680.post-52814640508095982312010-09-21T19:27:31.140-07:002010-09-21T19:27:31.140-07:00Actually, some better explanation can be seen on t...Actually, some better explanation can be seen <a href="http://imprudenceviewer.org/2010/09/18/regarding-llkdu/" rel="nofollow">on the Imprudence blog</a>. <br /><br />IMO I don't think it's the "ripping off llkdu" that was the issue - Emerald had their OWN kdu version, and who knows what went in it, considering all the OTHER stupid stuff they pulled. <br /><br />If the devs weren't asshats there probably still wouldn't be a problem. (yes, I'm a mite peeved about that...ruined it for everyone, they did.)Alexandra Ruckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00293068479980875034noreply@blogger.com
