    Both - they virtual hosts anyhow, right?
    'grepunderstanding' is easier to remember.
    For me.
    I'm new here...

    But certainly keep the one that's your name!

    Maybe I should go back to lurking, instead of being actively unhelpful...

    LOL

    Nah, I appreciate the thoughts. I am going to keep both pointing to the site, actually. I'm just wondering if I should change all the WordPress stuff to orient around the new domain or keep it the same.

    Anyway, thanks for the thoughts. :)

    the "wisdom > knowledge" looks too much like an arrow as in "wisdom becomes knowledge" or some such thing when I know that your intent is "is greater than". I'm not sure how to clarify that. Perhaps you should use some UNIX commands (use a | somehow). Don't ask me ... I'm still grading exams. :)

    The "wisdom > knowledge" is the rest of the Unix command - so it's "grep understanding wisdom > knowledge"

    ...looking for "understanding" in a file called "wisdom" and writing (over-writing!) a file called "knowledge"

    I'd say that knowledge is a prereq for wisdom, though. Where can I file a bug report?
    (kidding)

    I like the redundancy you have now. The ".com" kind of breaks the Unix-y part anyhow.

    But if you're looking for alternatives...
    How about
    learn while(1);
    or
    push @understanding while ();

    maybe drop the punctuation in that last one to *really* confuse people.

    Should've seen that coming.
    Inside the parens should be the word 'knowledge' in angle brackets.

    Dmiessler.com is shorter.. less to type in.. i like grep understanding more as a tagline than a URL.
