The good news is that there are relatively few orphans, and I've clustered some of them into now. text/html 2009-08-20T11:43:51+02:00 http://get-the.net/doku.php?id=recipes:tuna_melts&rev=1250761431&do=diff French-Toasted Tuna Melts If you can procure dolphin friendly pole and line caught skipjack or yellowfin tuna ( fishonline.org), you might enjoy this very filling sandwich (makes six, so I usually made a half recipe for three people, and that was plenty): text/html 2011-01-17T15:33:35+02:00 http://get-the.net/doku.php?id=joe&rev=1295274815&do=diff Freshman Sophomore Junior Senior CPSC 201a CPSC 202a Two electives CPSC 490a CPSC 323a CPSC 223b CPSC 365b Two electives One elective One elective and Sophomore Junior Senior CPSC 201a CPSC 323a CPSC 490a CPSC 202a One elective Two electives CPSC 223b CPSC 365b Two electives One elective CPSC 201a Int… text/html 2011-05-15T09:20:31+02:00 http://get-the.net/doku.php?id=theisms&rev=1305444031&do=diff FIXME This is a very draft document. I recently got to wondering and speculating on the advent of monotheism, and its seeming dominance of polytheisms. Related questions include the compatibility of belief in astrology with atheism.
