Chilling effect: "Refresh Dublin received a solicitor's letter on 10/11/09 threatening court proceedings within 7 days if we continue to use the word Refresh in any context." - http://refreshdublin.org/
"It's not quite as bad as PrototypeJS -- the most ironically named library ever. The whole point of it is to force Class-based bullshit onto the only pure Prototype-based language anyone uses. It's named after the concept it's designed explicitly to stamp out."

[#JRUBY-4218] jruby loads src/builtin/generator.rb ahead of any other file named generator - jira.codehaus.org - http://jira.codehaus.org/browse...
This breaks assorted code, such as rawr and roir; anything that expects to do a relative load of a file named "generator"

Soon to be catching up on some TV while doing the evening hacking bit.
Economic needs in USA are all taken care off, and we have too much money anyway. "Clinton offers U.S. aid to help boost Muslim ties" - http://in.news.yahoo.com/137...
"The programmes Clinton announced on Tuesday include a $76 million project to boost economic opportunities in Yemen, a $30 million project for vulnerable young people in Jordan and an entrepreneurship summit in Washington next year to bring Muslim innovators together with U.S. business leaders." Muslim innovators? WTF has religion to do with innovation? Are they cloning winged horses?

And the "solution" ends up having other quirks as well. Are there better ways to run Mac Vim from a shell?

So, thanks to suggestions from @rayniemeir I have an improved solution. Pushed "/Applications/MacVim.app/Contents/MacOS/" onto my PATH, and then use a bash function to call MacVim with a shorter name and some noise suppression.

Also, @benatkin suggested I locate and use the mvim script.

Unsub-ing from a weekly Target sale E-mail, I get "We are happy to remove your name from our e-mail list.
Please be aware that it may take up to 10 business days to remove your name." 10 days? Are paper and a printer involved here?
