Good artists steal." Not quite the same as <i>Only steal from the best,</i> which is more respectful. If you steal an idea from me, that's high praise because you're saying I'm the best, and you're also saying something nice about the quality of your own work.

This only works if the site supports <a href="http://archipelago.phrasewise.com/rsd">RSD</a>, a new format that helps simplify using easy and wizzy editing tools with weblog and content management software. Today I verified that the original script still works, it didn't depend on any of the features that changed in the shift from 0.6 to 1.0. An easy programming job.
