I had a dermatologist remove a mild case of mollescum contagiosum. It’s been said that burning them off causes less scarring than freezing them, mostly because the heat can be applied with greater precision.

I recently had an exchange with the person behind WikipediaClassAction dot org. The transcript is below Comments are welcome, though the following quote from wikipediaclassaction.org might do just as well to show you how stable the author is (emphasis my own): Our primary concern is that Wikimedia Foundation, Inc. and JIMBO (Jimmy) Wales believe themselves […]

The NoNofollow plugin …is a very simple WordPress-plugin to remove rel=’nofollow’ (as proposed by Google) from links in comments in WP’s output.
