Meta Tag List

Andy Dingley

made it perfectly clear that what you were looking for was a COMPLETE
list of OFFICIAL meta tags. Then, when I tell you there is NO SUCH
THING,

I have a vague recollection that there _is_ such a thing (or at least
the claim of such) as part of the standards for UK government sites
and their eGMS standards (wheels reinvented here). You can imagine
just how bad an idea this was, how pointless, how unworkable, and
given that this eGMS crap is cooked up from some unholy combination of
Andy Mabbett and Prince2, just how badly it's implemented.

writing in @a39g2000pre.googlegroups.com:
I did not know a paper that sold itself. Let's take that in a real
sense, do you think the same number of papers would have sold if the
Newspaper agency did not consider "News paper boys" like us?

Yes, because people who want the news will get it themselves. That's what
newspaper stands are for. You put the money into the box, and take out a
paper. No paperboy needed.

Sure, a given application or authority will define those fields that are
pertinent to its use or purview. That differs from what Ganesh
originally asked for in the same manner as a request for a list of all
tags defined in HTML or a list of all tags recognized by Netscape 4
differs from a complete, official list of all tags that may be used in
SGML-based languages (which is, of course, infinite and, at the SGML
level, none are "official", though of course they are within the
languages that define them).

Again, I mentioned "Business is a different ball game"

Surely, but do you really expect people here to be stupid enough to help you
in making lots of money without actually learning things and doing hard
work? Without expecting you to pay them a dime?

Well, this _might_ be one of the places where such people are still hiding,
but don't be too sure of that. Justice might be served when people give you
free advice that isn't worth its price, maybe thinking that's just right
under the circumstances.

The newspaper boy is not selling the paper, the paper sells itself.

Oh, I dunno, a kid with a good line and a loud voice can tip the balance
of a decision...

In Bullit, Steve McQueen - homicide detective on a big case taking a
break and arriving in home suburb tired - just took the paper and did
not pay. There are other disgraceful instances of this sort of thing in
other movies.

Our two local papers, the Glendale Newspress is free, but you have to
get to the news box before 7:30am or they are all gone. Spane is happy
to run up and get one for me so I can find out what's going on while we
take the bus to school. He was funny this morning when he saw the
picture of children watching President Obama on television, and he asked
me, "How does President Obama know that the I was summer vacation?"

We do not get any of those free as of yet.

Imagine the cost of delivering them from Glendale.

There was an excellent picture of the Station Fire in the Glendale
Newspress, and since the paper isn't going to be on your newstands,
here's a link to a picture of the fire:

&gallery_page=0&album_page=0&albumid=112&mediaid=803 - this second one
shows a Pyrocumulus cloud - we were all amazed, never seeing anything
like that in Los Angeles before.

Reminds me that bush fire season coming up over here in Australia. Such
terrible things and most of them caused by arsonists!
