Created article

Needs picture of books published. Has it been resolved that we don't need to get publishers permissions for book covers? Not sure how the discussion regarding the HP book ended.--Thomas Wright Sulcer 20:17, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

See this Forum discussion: http://forum.citizendium.org/index.php/topic,3089.msg27837.html#msg27837 As far as *I'm* concerned, that settles it. Just use *low-resolution* images. And check out all of the boilerplate used at WP to justify a cover: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Interlop11.jpg I think that if you upload and insert *low-resolution* images, PLUS put in as much of that boilerplate as possible (adapting it to CZ forms, of course), then you'll be all right. I'm gonna start doing it myself.... Hayford Peirce 20:28, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

Awk!

I have never designed a little desktop router. The routers I designed were intended for high-end ISP applications, and, indeed, were competitive with what the San Jose Mercury called Cisco's BFR. With the caveat that they were a family newspaper, the Mercury explained that stood for Big ...fast... Router. While I contributed to the Nortel 8600 and 25000, the really good design never became a product...pity. Howard C. Berkowitz 20:57, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

A bit too flippant?

"Howard strikes again" and "numerous talks to industry" are a little too flippant, while 'he loves cats and fishing' seems like its cribbed from a high schoolers CV. I'm all for tooting our horn but we might want to do it in a less characatured way. Chris Day 20:37, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

Yes it needs editing. I'll probably do articles on every CZer who has anything written about them or available on the Internet, btw. Toot toot! And I genuinely think HB is notable EVEN THOUGH I disagree with him about certain definitions. --Thomas Wright Sulcer 20:46, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
