If you go to the wiki of the creator of the wiki environment, Ward Cunningham,
(http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?WikiWikiWeb) one of the things you will notice is
the prevalence of a thing called wikiwords. that is any string of words with
the first letter of each work capitalized & no spaces. it is my understanding
of wikiwords that they are recognizable internet wide, & will find any page
by
that name. typing any words in that fashion automatically creates a link, no
closed brackets needed. this is the method I choose for creating pages for
topics that I am interested in within the PLANT section of the wiki.

anyone can create new topics or initiate or add to any page. Ive added a page
that is an essay of mine that Id like to figure out how to preserve intact,

yet the page could easily have questons, answers, comments at the bottom. I
know Mark L mentioned that he has documents he'd like to post as well.

some thots after spending way too much time in from of a computer this week.
just bought a grape press & dreamtime is gonna harvest between 50 -100 gallons
of elmer swensen variety grapes tomorrow. I hate to think how few gallons of
juice that reduces to but a bountybounty no less.
