Stuff just tends to drop in of its own accord. It's very handy for building up the Wiki Web, as I tend to <i>click</i> if I've already seen a page on a given subject. It also means I regard pages like <a href="/wiki/Mnemonic" title="Mnemonic">Mnemonic</a> with complete bemusement: remembering "Roy G. Biv" or "HOMES" seems to me to be an extra burden on the memory, not a lightening. There's the mnemonic, plus what it actually is supposed to represent.

The article went on to say that many cool things would be possible with the colour screens that we'd be seeing on advanced models; but that given minimal memory and ways of addressing the screen all aimed at minimizing power consumption, programmers who worked on games on 1980s computers such as the Commodore 64 and the ZX Spectrum would find their skills at squeezing the maximum effiencency out of the minimum code once again in demand. </p><p>In particular (it said), the problem of "<a href="/wiki/Attribute_clash" title="Attribute clash">attribute clash</a>" seen on the Spectrum was again rearing its ugly head. Intrigued by the term - it was implied that it related to colour on the screen - I Googled it, and the first link got me to Wikipedia... </p><p>I do of course try and tone done my style when writing Wikipedia entries: I do have a tendency to ramble.&#160;;-) </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Rant_and_Rave">Rant and Rave</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=User:Tarquin&amp;action=edit&amp;section=12" title="Edit section: Rant and Rave"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><i>the rant and rave section is currently closed while I think of something else to complain about</i> </p><p>My (current) number one Wikipedia grouse is this: "Venice, Italy", "London, England" and so forth. That is how cities are indentified in the US; not in the rest of the world. A rout through UK train timetables for the few duplicate towns shows they use "Gillingham (Kent)", for example. The same form or "Gillingham in Kent" is usual in newspaper or reference articles if readers may not know which county a place is in. However, in the interests of consistency in page names, we're stuck with the stateside terminology. It's probably all irrational reactions to cultural imperialism. That or seeing that dratted comma always reminds me of Marilyn Monroe saying "Paris, France is in Europe?" in <i>Gentlemen prefer blondes</i>... </p><p>Second grouse: bad French. Most Anglophones are shovelled some sort of French at school, and are under the impression that they a) recall it and b) it was correct in the first place.
