I emailed Robert this morning with a couple questions about importing old weblog entries into Radio Userland and this was basically his response. I can understand where he’s coming from and I wasn’t offended by his response in anyway, but I was still disappointed. I like to live on the bleeding edge I guess.

I wonder how they came up with the term Zinc fingers?
