		<title>Not in harmony</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Blog still a shambles? Yes. (Conversion tool&#8230; oh, right, I meant to put that up.) Knitting not progressed? Not very much at all. A new story? Perhaps. 
Do you know those multicoloured knitting needles&#8211;those ones made from a laminate composed of different coloured layers? 
Who makes them?
&#8230; okay, then. Who made them first?
The fact that [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hello world. Sigh.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, first some code on most of my site got eaten by the&#8230; I don&#8217;t know, maybe the incompatibility monster.
And then my webhost went down for a day, and took my e-mail with it. I know it&#8217;s not just me, because I can&#8217;t even get to their website.
So I&#8217;m in the process of moving and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Read the fine print.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s another thing.
Since it was launched, people have been touting Creative Commons as a great idea. And it is, frankly. There are a lot of creators out there who do want to share their work in a spirit that focuses on attribution and perpetuating the work (because the more a work is distributed the more [...]]]></description>

		<title>Riddle me this&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[How do (hand knitting/crocheting) designers view fair use or fair dealing? A good thing, right?
I assume that, for many designs, we can all agree that some of the elements incorporated into a design or a pattern did not originate from the designer, to the extent that the designer cannot really complain if someone else in [...]]]></description>

		<title>I lost it.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I can&#8217;t find the yarn I&#8217;m looking for.
It&#8217;s the Zara that was on sale at elann four or so years ago. The yarn that people bought, and then discovered smelled funny? Like kimchi? That yarn.
I bought it in ecru and green, and however much I got (I haven&#8217;t looked it up), it was two sweaters&#8217; [...]]]></description>

		<title>Public service captcha</title>
		<description><![CDATA[(I had been procrastinating regarding work. Nothing surprising.)
So, the simple, custom anti-spam plugin failed and I was getting tons of spam comments. I&#8217;ve just installed reCAPTCHA, which I used to hate when I first encountered it (on the USPTO website), but once I realized that it actually provides a public good by helping to digitize [...]]]></description>

		<title>Guess the year</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, I was doing a search for an old e-mail address of mine, because&#8230; uh, I have no idea why I decided to do that. I think I must have seen something in passing that made me think of it. (Great. This was only about three minutes ago, and I simply can&#8217;t remember what it [...]]]></description>

		<title>Answers (the procedural kind)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Answers to the complaints were filed in both the Bliss and Noro actions by the U.S. defendants (Bliss Answer, Noro Answer). The answers simply deny (mostly) the allegations in the complaints, admitting some non-contentious issues, and denying any knowledge of others.
There is not a lot to read between the lines here; however, one thing caught [...]]]></description>
