Lincoln, your quotes suck.
To be specific, they suck because of their lack of attribution.
Why the fuck don't you link to -- or at least SAY -- where you got them from?

Not many... BUT
If you look for the "ICLRPD" thingy you will see the attribution.
Personally, the ones that are added from other whence (not specifically here on *Z*) are really precious.

When first presented here, MOST do, AFAICS; usually...
...in the form of a little "Branched Reply To #..." link at the top left.
But many -- dare I hope, most? -- "external" ones are also properly attributed, which I find no more than right and proper. (See, for a recent instance, the Other Scott's [link|/forums/render/content/show?contentid=141929|Post #141929].)

I have in some
and in others I haven't. Plain ol' laziness, I guess.
I'll work on it for future postings.

I think what they are saying is...
Half the fun of the LRPD is knowing where it came from. ;)

This is not an LRPD
This is a political statement. LRPDs should still make sence (or not make sence in the right way) two years from now. I have high hopes that this one will not.

Certainly, as long as they don't require any treatment.
