I agree that Karl is trying to be helpful. But the suggestion of a blog
was, IMHO, a good idea. Karl's paper will, or already has, disappeared in
that abyss called the list archive. Not many search there. Many don't know
how to search there. Many don't make the effort to search there.

If Karl had a blog, they are free, and posted his information there it,
this laptop WiFi paper for example, would be findable with Google. I think
that would help more people than posting it here to this list.

What do you think?
