What a creative title.

I'm very satisfied with Libre Office, but only because the only person I need to share files with is willing to accept them. If I were widely sharing files across a university net or corporate net I think I would have to have MS Office.

...Or, you could just save the document in Word.

The original title was Sid Meyer's Memoir.

I can't wait until he switches from square pages to hexagonal pages in SM Memoir V

Isn't Word part of MS Office?

Not sure, I only use WordStar and Lotus 1-2-3.

Yes

@yung.carl.jung: 17 ways to cook eggs other than boiling or frying.

Well, technically 9 ways, and another 8 remain unlisted (????), and this is criminally excluded, but it's a starting point.

I've seen that one. I was very disappointed with the lack of spanish omelettes as well.

I think he means, as a word document, not using word. That is, not saving as the default document type but choosing to save it as a word document.

Yeah, that's what I do...using Libre Office.

I see that I didn't make that clear.

In fact I see that I made that unclear.

One more page then I'm going to bed.

Probably reads faster than a game of VI plays!

I'm a big fan of ginger beer, but unfortunately the only stuff the grocery store I go to sells is the somewhat expensive 'craft soda' type. Turns out the Canada Dry Bold Ginger Ale is has basically the same kick as Ginger Beer, but is three times the number of cans for the same price.

If you lived around here you could get Desnoes and Geddes. Its a Jamaican company typically sold in areas with high West Indian populations.

I.e. .doc(x)?

Yeah, I basically botched that entire conversation. I think of it as 'doc-ex' rather than 'word document' and I got sideways off the blocks and never really recovered. I think I would still take a MS Office suite if I could get it for free though...maybe. I'm pretty happy with LibreOffice though, so maybe not.
