My latest obsession

I'm writing a program to calculate days on the 1962 liturgical calendar, the one used for the traditional Latin Mass/Extraordinary Form/Tridentine Mass/whatever you call it. This time I'm documenting everything as it happens - breathtaking LIVE coverage of a fat guy typing at a computer!

I've been down this road before back in 2002 or so when I wrote a similar program in emacs lisp for the current liturgical calendar. This time I'm writing in Mathematica, and I'm an older and slightly wilier programmer.

That's a reputation

So I was over at stackoverflow, where my "reputation" is rated at 146, answering an emacs question, but I wasn't logged in. It took my a few minutes to find my blasted OpenID login info, and by the time I finally logged in to answer the guy's question, Charlie Martin had already answered. His stackoverflow reputation is 10.6k, and his answer is correct.

A beautiful monospace font

After reading about it in a blog post this evening I installed Inconsolata by Raph Levien, and it's been a great comfort to my old tired eyes. If you're running ubuntu just do "sudo apt-get install ttf-inconsolata" to install it.

Testing from emacs

Can I post from emacs using Mikey Coulson's e-blog.el?

I dunno.
