Where paper sizes come from
If you hold them up next to each other A4 is a bit taller and thinner and 8 1/2 x 11 is shorter and wider. Makes perfect sense.— January 17, 2013 10:59 a.m.
More Phone Numbers, More Problems
re phone numbers. It's obviously too late now but they should have done what they do in Europe. All the land lines keep the original area code (in SD's case 619) and then cell-phones are given area codes based on what provider they belong to and not based on geography. It's also helpful because you recognize right away whether you're dialing a landline and/or dialing a phone number of a different provider (which might cost you more).— May 10, 2012 4:01 a.m.
The Little and the Big
um... assuming you meant Ghost Dog and not Ghost World? I would like to say that Jarmusch is a quality filmmaker even if he is sometimes hit and miss. Down By Law was certainly a really good film as was Broken Flowers although both in completely different ways.— May 22, 2009 5:15 a.m.
