I may check that out after a bit.

Meanwhile, do you enjoy crosswords?
I've struck up a cyber-acquaintance with a Brit who creates the kind I like best, i.e. the "British-Style" or "Cryptic" ones:

Wonderful! I am tempted to print that out and present it to Mr B - except I'm running low on black ink.

Perhaps someone who works in a government office could print it out on government ink (as I used to do when I worked in a government office).

Wordle is a good word(le).

Already printed on my home laser, no red ink needed.

"No RED INK!?"

You should go to Wallstreet, D.C., and straighten them all out!

In case anyone was wondering, the words I fed into Wordle were the titles of all of Bradbury's short stories (taken from the Short Story Finder on my web site). Wordle seems to emphasise words according to how often they are repeated in the input text.

(To get "Ray Bradbury" to appear in large text, I had to add those two words about 35 times!)

And a job well done.
