(Yes, it's nitpicky, but I haven't been out of the library before 11pm even once this week, what do you think that would do to your mood?   ::worry:: )

I was thinking "henceforth", but you're probably right.

Either one.  I was going to say "hereinafter" but that sounded too legalese. ::screwy::

Regardless of Cornell's official color, the tradition has been in the Ivy league for Harvard to have dark red and Cornell to have brighter red. If Cornell played its games wearing true Carnelian, everyone outside the knowledgeable few thousand would say, "How derivative." If you for argument's sake made the home page green, yes, most everyone would think Dartmouth [and you'd hear even more from all the Jessiman haters]. I think it's either got to be a neutral color, a color that doesn't identify with any of the other Ivy teams, or Cornell red.

But since Cornell's sporting color for jerseys is red not crimson, deep, or Carnelian red, it's a little unusual at first to see the deeper shade. (There was nothing about the proper team uniform color in President Lehman's call to engagement, alas.)

The combination of the dark red shading and the photos that have such modest amounts of color makes the home page on some monitors look like a sepia print from the past. Does anyone else have that impression seeing the panorama at page-top?

One ought have the same color on all the pages, particularly the home page and the elynah forum - whatever color you chooses.

Since the forum is so popular, perhaps that should be a truly direct link off the home page, not just a link off Other ELynah Sites.

But regardless, it's nice work.

Sympathy is possible, depending on whether you arrive at the library at 6pm or 930 pm.

4pm? Sheesh! Are you an engineer or pre-med? Remember, if you're a government major, you can write what's on your mind and get a B+, minimum. Some of the other majors actually demand the one correct answer for full credit. I suppose that's important so the bridge gets built with the right amount of steel and concrete. As you can see from politics, there are lots of wrong answers passed off as correct-enough answers.

Heh, actually he's in law school.
