I could only get through the first chapter before setting this down. It has flowery awkward old English which I will avoid from now on.

A dying guy writes about how awesome he had it, and gives advice to his children.
It takes almost half of the book to mine more than two interesting points. It is a glaring reminder of how important it is to have a solid first chapter. Instead, chapter after chapter this book keeps promising something interesting, forcing the reader to cling to the “I’m dying” parts to hope for something better.
For people who stick it out, there is a lot of fluff which I was able to trivially summarize with two pages of bullet points. That’s nothing to sneeze at, so I suppose this is worth reading for some, though I won’t recommend it.

Split off from Migrating WordPress
Short answer: There might be ways to import something large, but it’s far easier to reduce the size of your database.

Migrating WordPress from one web hosting company to another.
The goal is to have a blog installation which is active and working, and will never be disabled and cannot be damaged in any way, and to copy it to a new place. For my tests, I used an entirely new host using a new “practice” domain name.

So I went through some old music notes from.. a long time ago. I saved these from basically pre-internet days until I could find more info now. Thanks, past-self!
Smoke City – (1997 – Flying Away) – Underwater Love

Adema – (2001 – Adema) – Speculum
earlier than 2005-06-11 – While searching for more music from Blutengel, I bumped into some metal fans. I looked into Amaduscia and also Adema. I fell in love with the haunting sounds in this song.
Jale – (1996 – So Wound) – Ali

I know this from Campus Tour Sampler ’96 (102.1 the edge) song 3 – see Toronto Mike’s page
