		+	If you have lots of non-English books, take a look at how the sorting is now going. We made some changes. They improve things, but don't absolutely fix them. (We've been hacking away at this all day, and will be working some more.) For example, Cyrillic now sorts Аа, Бб, etc. But Ёё gets thrown to the front (argh!). Otherwise, same, better, same? Note: This is only book titles in your catalog. http://www.librarything.com/topic/136851 (2012-05-08)

		+
		+	Tag pages should now always show the same cover as the work page, deploying the Amazon ISBN cover, the CoverThing ISBN cover and non-ISBN custom covers, as appropriate. Other bugs or suggestions of bugs here must be separately and explicitly bugged. http://www.librarything.com/topic/98768 (2012-05-11)

	GDP and debts are facts. Future revenue is a politician's plaything. http://www.librarything.com/topic/124581 (2012-05-12)		GDP and debts are facts. Future revenue is a politician's plaything. http://www.librarything.com/topic/124581 (2012-05-12)
		+
		+	Is it about canonical names? My guess is that this about characters. Is there a simple example? http://www.librarything.com/topic/120943 (2012-05-14)
		+
		+	Right. I only changed works. If that's the problem, I can fix it, presumably adding the other other-name fields for authors. http://www.librarything.com/topic/120943 (2012-05-14)
		+
		+	Sorry it took so long. It got mixed up with my ongoing changes to character sets on the catalog. They seemed like the same issue, but were not. http://www.librarything.com/topic/136868 (2012-05-15)
		+
		+	It fixed them if you didn't re-save. Otherwise, it sort of mucked up the muck up, and is not algorithmically reversible. http://www.librarything.com/topic/136868 (2012-05-15)

		+
		+	It seems to me that the core bug here is not a bug, and is unfixable. A given author code (eg., hammesfrank) gets its full form from all the full forms of it in the system. At some point there was one, so it was "Frank Hammes." Once there are none in the system, it can't do any better than hammesfrank, unless you add a canonical name. http://www.librarything.com/topic/135377 (2012-04-06)
		+
		+	Right. That makes a certain sense but, well, meh. There's no right answer. But you can make the answer right, with the Canonical Author. http://www.librarything.com/topic/135377 (2012-04-06)

	Juries must, of course, consider the evidence as it stands. A reasonable person, however, understands that "the evidence" sometimes changes—a cop was manipulating it, a victim changes their story, etc. The justice system as it is can handle that. People get out of jail all the time when it turns out something went terribly wrong with the evidence. There is, however, a difference between a case established beyond a reasonable doubt, but still resting on evidence that has—historically—turned out to be occasionally wrong, and the sort of man-caught-in-the-act that a reasonable person could not reasonably conclude rests on faulty evidence. http://www.librarything.com/topic/134711 (2012-03-26)		Juries must, of course, consider the evidence as it stands.

	Look, I know what you mean. I just think people too easily conflate being wrong and being stupid. Hitler was wrong. Hitler was "crazy" in a popular sense all along and "crazy" in a technical sense at the very end, perhaps. All along he held some beliefs that were not only morally wrong, but dumb too. But Hitler wasn't stupid. http://www.librarything.com/topic/127847 (2011-12-03)		Look, I know what you mean. I just think people too easily conflate being wrong and being stupid. Hitler was wrong.

		+	I think both sides use "idiot" as a synonym for "wrong." But the left does it more often. The right is more prone to hurling charges of immorality or cowardice where "wrong" would be more appropriate. http://www.librarything.com/topic/127847 (2011-12-03)

		+	She didn't just say she <em>believed</em> in creation, she called evolution in school "government censorship" of intelligent design. That touches government policy, making her extreme views relevant to how she'd act as president. Sure, education is a small part of the president's job. If Bachman were the greatest, wisest and most qualified statesman since Cato, I could live with whatever idiot Secretary of Education she appointed. But it's a small issue that speaks to a much larger extremism and anti-intellectualism. http://www.librarything.com/topic/127847 (2011-12-02)
