I just learned about this PHP function: string str_repeat ( string $input , int $multiplier ).

<?php echo str_repeat("<img src='HRH.png'>", 9001); ?>

Well if I'm not a skxawng for not realising that Pandora was set in a real universe, then you are certainy not skxawng for not knowing this technical, sentence thing, which I have no hope whatsoever of understanding. I'm certainly not as smart as you.:P HRH

if you're talking about that same thing we were talking about the other day, I totally get it, but it's not really easy to explain it as it is shown.

You're as smart as you want to be. :)

Yes, ethanal (acetaldehyde) as an intermediate of alcohol degradation sure makes you feel sick. ;D

I bought myself some new earbuds yesterday, and as they were made in China, the box had some of the specifications in Chinese. I couldn't waste such learning opportunity :) I couldn't figure out only two characters, one because I have forgotten it, and the other because it was all in Simplified Chinese (the form I'm used to: 靈; and the Simplification: 灵). At least the context and the units were of help. Some words I've learnt:
阻抗 ("impedance")
規格 ("specifications")
喇叭 (I previously only knew the car "horn" meaning, but apparently it can also mean "speaker")
設計 (This one I'm not sure I could figure out by myself, but as I've noticed afterwards, there was a decent English translation of the whole thing below, and this one means "design")

You can read in those symbols? :o You have my respect. I'm not sure but I think I could never learn it.

Well, there's some good news, and there's some bad news. Which would you like first?

Three thousand?!! :o :o
I understood, you learn the simpler one and then the others -which are based on the simpler ones.
But still... Three thousand.  :o
And five thousand enough for literacy? ... I'm glad, I can read (and kind of write) pretty well in English and partly in Na'vi...

I know, you will say it's not so hard as it seems, but it really deserves respect. :)
