This blog will reopen its doors and windows some time in September this year. For the grand opening in Thailand the Rolling Stones has asked if they may perform.
Till then, here are the problems from May 2004 - November 2007.
Tomorrow we will leave Tarija for Christmas holidays in Santa Cruz. Tarija has been our home for almost a year since we left France for Bolivia.
After the holidays we will move to country X. We have an idea of what X is, and will tell you as soon as we have an Internet connection there. When that will be? Hopefully, not later than January 20.
The easiest way to find out when we are broadcasting again is to go to Subscribe and set up an email subscription or a feed one. They are both free.
Till then, happy holidays and thanks for your comments and suggestions this year. If you have ideas of problems we might serve when we return, just drop me a line at jannordgreen@gmail.com.
The news about the break was inadvertently leaked to the press yesterday. The image shows the typical reaction amongst our younger readers.
Update January 24: The blog will recommence hopefully in another three weeks. X´s Immigration Department is working on our case.
Update February 29: The blog will recommence hopefully in one to three months. X´s Immigration Department is working on our case. I currently live in Samaipata, Bolivia, where the only way to connect to the Internet is via three satellite driven cafes. With no Internet at home, no blog. Sorry!
Update July 19: X was American Samoa before it became Qatar and then Kuwait. At the moment it is Thailand. If everything goes well this blog will resume its operation in mid September.
I have a blog hosted for free at wordpress.com. It allows Latex notation to display math formulas in posts and comments. Here is an example.
Wordpress.com has Latex installed, but my host, Bluehost, does not. One solution seems to be to use mimetex, as explained here, here, and here. I will try to install it soon and tell you when it is done.
Meanwhile, here and here are online Latex editors. They let you create formulas and download them as images.
For math symbols, like the one for infinity, you may use these codes.
Come to think of it, it would be nice to be able to preview comments before they are posted. At the moment you can’t.
One last thing. Google has made public an api for generating charts or graphs in real time online.
Here is a comprehensive overview of other ways of getting charts online.
So many things, so little time… 
A few weeks ago I changed to Bluehost as my web host for this blog. They give you 600GB hard disk space and 6000GB of monthly transfer for $6.95 per month if you sign up for two years ($7.95 per month for one year). So far they have answered all my inquiries to my satisfaction so the service seems to be fine too.
Here are the good news: If you sign up by clicking this link: Sign up at Bluehost and help think again!, Bluehost will send $65.00 my way. It doesn’t cost you anything extra, and it does this blog a lot of good.

Update December 10th, 2007: Someone has already been kind enough to use the link to sign up at Bluehost making think again! $65.00 richer. Thank you anarchistworkshop.net!
Who else wants 600GB for $6.95 per month and support this blog for free?
At the moment it is not possible to display externally stored images in comments without me going in an editing the comment. You may, of course, give the url of the image for people to click.
When pMachine was used [img] url of the image [/img] was allowed. To allow it with WordPress I need to edit the program. Can anyone tell me how? I have searched the Internet, but with no success.
I guess all that is needed is to replace every occurrence of [img] url of the image [/img] with <img src=”url of the image” alt=”image” />.
85 people subscribed to think again! in Bloglines before we switched the server yesterday.
Here are the new URL feeds:
http://easyquestion.net/thinkagain/?feed=rss2
http://easyquestion.net/thinkagain/?feed=comments-rss2
The first is for the posts, the second for the comments.
The nice thing with RSS and readers like Bloglines is that the web pages come to you, you don’t come to them. Highly recommended!
Here are my public feeds. (I have to find the time to weed them a bit…)
I have changed web server as the previous one was expensive and gave terrible service. The old url will redirect automatically to the new one till April 2008, but you may like to jot down the new and shorter url.
I have changed from pmachine to Wordpress for a few reasons:
I will make all old posts and comments available when I find some code to transfer the pmachine records into the Wordpress tables.
