    I'm not sure Fresh Prince is a good example. Fresh prince had a huge following amongst all types of people and was specifically created to show another type of African american soc…

    African Americans are just over 12% of the population. The average adult has how many "friends" and how many of those are spouses of other friends and friends of family? I think th…

    My objection to Markdown is that its just a proxy for something else and only fixes a very limited set of HTML issues. If you have to learn Markdown you may as well learn HTML. The…
