Welcome to IWETHEY!

New On the other hand on bit confused on the Google comment
I use the site: syntax all the time to search various sites including this one. I've learned most sites don't actually have to have a site search function because Google just do it for you. I don't claim to care to the level to actually find that historical post. I played for a moment and then realized that I really didn't care and stopped. But I'm sure I could track it down if I really had to.


I tried to explain the Way Back Machine to M a couple days ago. There is this resource that attempts to snapshot web pages at various stages to allow us to go back and see the historical versions of them. That is what the way back machine is.

The reason you really want this is to determine when people are lying to you. They claim s*** didn't happen and we know better because we look at the way back machine. The way back machine guards against propaganda.
New I only got 3 hits when I did a "site:..." search.
I did:

site:forum.iwethey.org "Another Scott" Kim

or something like that.

I know there was much more out there...

The Wayback Machine is great, but I can't figure out how to use it except by date. I can't seem to tell it to search a site for something in, say, 2006. I have to go through the snapshots one by one and click and read and click and read and hope I get lucky. I understand that an index of sites there would be impractically huge and CPU intensive, but still it's unfortunate that it's not easier to pick out stuff that you know is buried there.

Cheers,
Scott.
New Heh...
You may end up being right, and history tells us you're likely to be right, ...


Seems like I learned to put enough qualifications in my comments!

Hehe.

Cheers,
Scott.
New We should review old arguments and tally up points.
Assad is still in charge of Syria. We were both wrong on that.

North Korea is still saber-rattling. That's my win.

Burma / Myanmar has swapped back to a military junta dictatorship. Not sure what your position on that was but I considered that country one of the few that escaped from a military junta. I was wrong.
