An application to automatize chapter splitting ? I’d much rather have support on the application for EPUB, which can support chapter division and similar block elements through the use of multiple flows and a NCX file.

But you can be loyal to people in various ways while sticking to your ideas. They’re both both important. I’d have a lot fewer friends if I filtered by politics. OK, Mike, I’ll now release you from my noose. David

>>>Hey, Mike, I’m loyal only to PEOPLE—not hardware.

Tch. You need to evolve another step. Ralph Nader, for instance, is loyal to IDEAS, not people. (See “An Unreasonable Man” documentary.) He’s right, too!

(Oh I will hang now! Get in line behind everyone else waiting with *their* ropes!)

Hey, Mike, I’m loyal only to PEOPLE—not hardware. If the iPod evolves in the right ways, hey, count me in. Meanwhile thanks for your kind words.

So, David, will we someday read of you trading in that OLPC for a 32GB iPod Touch? (I only *half* tease!)
