Hrm.. thought so.

Manually doing it on something like this is too time consuming

<div><h3>From Publishers Weekly</h3><p>Prolific novelist Stross pauses to collect short stories that have not (yet) been stitched up into his longer work. Stories that move the U.S.–U.S.S.R. conflict onto a massive disk in another galaxy (Locus Award–winner Missile Gap), offer a spam-filter solution to the Fermi paradox (MAXOS) and suggest clever bargains with the devil in a newly frozen Scotland (Snowball's Chance) demonstrate Stross's ability to crisscross genres, blending SF, fantasy, horror and espionage. He also pays homage to his literary forebears, combining Lovecraft and the Iran-Contra scandal (The Colder War) and bringing in Carl Sagan and Stephen Jay Gould as characters. Though individual pieces are well-done and deservedly popular, the collection has an overall sense of early drafts and reworkings of other pieces, as with Trunk and Disorderly, a P.G.

Anyway yes, I select it and copy it to notepad and do a copy / replace on the "255" to "240"

Didn't that panel used to be white one time? - shame its grey if most of the web, where you copy stuff from is going to be white.

I suppose just putting in txt and then copying any links individually is the other way to go.

Defiantly room here for some tweaking or something
