Hi William.  Nice article!  I've taken the liberty of moving it to [[Year 2038 bug]] per our naming conventions and adding in some wikilinks.  I've also added the [[CZ:The Article Checklist]].  Note that you should avoid writing in the first person (e.g., "I have noted...") as others will eventually work on the article too.  Regards, [[User:Anton Sweeney|Anton Sweeney]] 08:33, 18 August 2007 (CDT)

Hi Anton! Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, it's a work in progress, and I'm rewriting an original draft of my article to take it away from first-person. Cheers, [[User:William Porquet|William Porquet]] 016:00, 18 August 2007 (EDT)

Welcome to the Citizendium! We hope you will contribute boldly and well. Here are pointers for a quick start. You'll probably want to know how to get started as an author. Just look at Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, our help system and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages. Be sure to stay abreast of events via Twitter. You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forum is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any administrator for help, too. Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun! John Stephenson 00:00, 6 August 2007 (CDT)

Flipped Image

The text on James Joyce's book is a dead giveaway!--Robert W King 14:03, 15 August 2007 (CDT)

That's how Mina took the photograph, through a mirror. If you look carefully you can see the smudges where the bar staff forgot to wipe. :-) --William Porquet 15:10, 15 August 2007 (EDT)

If you flip the image, it will be "correct", if you so wish ;) --Robert W King 14:17, 15 August 2007 (CDT)

I appreciate the offer (I have Photoshop too), but I daren't offend the artist who wanted to make a statement with a touch of trompe-l'œil. --William Porquet 15:27, 15 August 2007 (EDT)
