| I'm a little concerned by the whole "call-out culture" thing: http://www.dailydot.com/opinion/adria-richards-pycon-call-out-culture/ It makes me feel very unsafe. Reminds me of how I've felt in neurotypical culture for years where I never knew when I was going to offend someone for something and not... |

| It bothers me that all the folks in mediveal movies have such. . .perfect teeth. I agree. They didn't have dentists or modern toothbrushes, but they also didn't eat much if any sugar, and they ate quite a bit of coarse, fibrous food that automatically cleaned their teeth while chewing (and such coa... |

| Completed. I don't suppose we'll have the opportunity to see the results of your study (as in, access to your paper)? I'm curious to know and you'd probably get some interesting feedback on here. I can post the results here - it's not going to be a "published paper", just a paper for class. But I'l... |

| I tried, but I ruined it after the first [response to a section]... I went and clicked the "next" button instead of hitting "enter." :oops: The back button didn't help (wasn't supposed to use it anyway), and the instructions say not to try taking the test again. I suppose I could have continued to ... |

| Just to debug - did you click the NEXT button on the app, or the RETURN/ENTER key on your keyboard? If you clicked the "NEXT" button, how would you phrase it to distinguish between that and the RETURN/ENTER key on your keyboard? Thanks. I think I pressed the NEXT button, now you specify the two opt... |

| I always sit in the front row. It's easier to hear and concentrate on what the teacher is saying. And I don't notice how many people are there behind me. I have accommodations as well. It really helps. |

| Hi folks: I'm hoping, now that the quarter is over and I've had a chance to debug my program, that folks will be willing to help me by participating in a short (less than 10 minutes) anonymous study so I can complete a project for a class. If you're willing to participate, please go to: http://edu21... |

I've tested this repeatedly, on Firefox, Opera, Safari, and IE. So, of course, after I announce it, it starts to freeze. I'll have to figure out what happened and fix it. Sorry about that.
I've got a "sorry not working" page up now. |

Thanks for letting me know. I'll go back and see if I can fix it. Thought it was tested and working for everything... Sorry about that. |
