    I don't live here anymore. This is now an archive. No messages, please - I rarely visit. No friends requests: it's a waste of your time and I'd laugh at you because you didn't bother reading this.

    I removed everyone from my friends list before I left and given the "share" button's continued flawed existence, I'm glad I did.

    "Search engine optimization" sounds like something which should make it easier for people who are running searches, but it isn't. It's something which helps peddlers get $$$.

    Why do folks write glowing reviews of sites and Stumblers (even adding them to their friends lists) without giving them a thumbs up? More and more stumblers review loads of their fellow stumblers without giving a single one a thumbs up. They thumb up other sites (mainly their own content) but never another stumbler. Mayhap they think this increases their own status, but it doesn't. It just makes them look very Steve.

    Some sites on SU are miscategorized. This happens when people don't bother or when they select the wrong category for their "discoveries." There are people who deliberately miscat sites, but they are unworthy of discussion.
    There is no reason to thumb down a site and write a snotty review just because it's miscat - you'll look more than a bit Steve when the site is later recat and your review is still bitchy. Just recat it instead - you don't have to hit either thumb button and there's no need for a review - it's far easier.
    When "discoveries" are properly categorized it means Gentle Stumblers will easily find sites which interest them, which is SU's raison d'ętre.

    Trolls think they are master baiters but it's just a mis-spelling.

    Return from the brink of extinction for world's last wild horse

    An international working group coordinated by scientists at the Institute of Zoology have made the remarkable recommendation to reclassify the Mongolian Przewalski's horse previously categorised as `extinct' in the wild, to `endangered' on the IUCN red list of threatened species; a move which highlights the success of recent captive breeding and reintroduction programmes.

    The working group of over 60 mammal specialists was managed by IoZ scientist Jonathan Baillie to assess Mongolian biodiversity and specifically, for the first time, examine the population of Przewalski's horses since their reintroduction programme began in the 1990's.

    "This finding is significant as it shows reintroductions can work," said Sarah King, ZSL project manager in Mongolia. "The status change is exciting because it illustrates that the horses have adjusted well to native conditions, they are surviving and reproducing well, indicating they haven't been weakened by captivity - which was an initial worry."

    In 1945 there were only 31 horses in captivity but by the early 1990's there were over 1500 and reintroductions began into their harsh, native environment of Mongolia.
