Hey, Drj -- I was looking at the edit you made on Mountain Unicycling and wanted to point out that "i.e.," essentially means "that is"...if you changed it for stylistic reasons, fair enough, but I thought I would point it out just in case you thought "i.e.," was being used inappropriately. I don't care enough to change it back :) -- Paul Drye

Thanks for the note. I changed it stylistic reasons. I'm sure it was at least suggested in a wikipedia style guide somewhere. I can't be bothered to find said guide right now. I think that the "no i.e." and "no e.g." style should be adopted in any case. Most professional publications follow the same guidelines. --drj

Oh, I see you are a professional writer. That makes my comments rather embarrassing. Never mind. --drj
