And while I'm at it, may I say that trademarking the phrases: { “Future Proof.”, “Sleep Well at Night.” and “More Time for …” when replacing the ellipsis with an activity} is a purely draconian measure in my opinion. People use those phrases aalllll the time, how the heck can you trademark them?

It's a family tradition.

Ah That brings back memories... Ryan and I fussed with my ShopX e-commerce add-on for a while for that site, until I, at least, gave up on it - I didn't know anything at all about e-commerce. ShopX was basically supposed to be a proof-of-concept using resources and Ditto to make a shop catalog. It sort of grew from there, with snippets and TVs with specially prefixed names to handle various things like shipping methods and costs, taxes, etc. All very modular. Shipping and payment gateways set up as radio buttons automatically generated from specially-named snippets. Plugins, cookies, switching sessions to handle the transition between ssl and non-ssl pages. It was fun. FoxyCart was a lot better, though, since those people know what they're doing.

Talk about nostalgia. I had forgotten that ShopX even existed.

I try hard to forget, but every now and then something brings it back to mind
