Hey I hate to ask here, but forgive me, I'm new. How do you change fonts or create links on this board? I can do nothing but regular type.

The only version I could get to download properly was the HD quicktime version. The version on iTunes and the other versions don't work for me.

Correction: The streaming version works, too.

Most simple HTML code seems to work on Hit & Run. A few examples (written for Fark.com, but the code is the same) can be found here.

Oh yeah, good show Reason.tv. You seem to really be hitting your stride and keeping a good pace and balance to the conversation. Keep 'em coming.

Not bringing back the comment log on reason.tv? I once had a PhD from Penn. somewhere come and tell my college how great and democratic pioneers pirates where in the 17th century.
