    Good summary. Thanks for that.

    Rereading your original post I see where I went wrong... Your were saying The #Oligarchs gutted voting rights, etc., etc. (not Schumer et al). I totally agree. And I'm with you. Organized #Dems/#DNC are still too close to big money and corporations. I generally don't like the Dem #leadership but I'm not wise enough to have strong feelings re who to support as Speaker and Senate leader. I fear the law of unintended consequences! I'm trusting there will be a good faith effort to figure this out.

    Wikipedia on the #WWW starts with this sentance...

    "The Web was invented by English computer scientist Tim Berners-Lee while at CERN in 1989 and opened to the public in 1993."

    So the publication date of the book (1992) is interesting. Not sure what "open to the public" means in this context?! 🤷‍♂️

    I think I became aware of the #Web about 1994. We brought up a web server in about 1996 ("WebStar" on an old Mac we had lying around).

    Since I was at a US University, we were using #Gopher in our library around that time. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gopher_(

    I don't know the history of #browser design... but back in the early days a "Browser" was a much broader concept--a sort of information crossroads tool. They supported many different protocols or "schemes" (the http: part of the address). Mailto: was one that just jumped to your email client, but others were real, but often limited interfaces. The ones I remember are: gopher:, ftp:, telnet:, and even some sort of database access! These were not extensions. They came built-in as part of the browser itself! It was a brave new world back then! 🙂

    I've had a similar experience. Très bien! 👏

    Starting to see results comparable with #Lightroom.

    I had trouble moving settings and labels, but this is mostly Adobe's fault I think. The sidecar files from my old stand alone LR were either missing or did not contain all the data.

    I've moved on with #RapidRaw and am very happy with it!

    PS: I hope you have the little translate button that I did. My French is very weak.
