You are third in the search results

Don't forget about Google's annoying tendency to give you relevant search results.

Our Alicorn is second, third, sixth, and seventh on the search results for Alicorn here, not counting "in your social circle".

If anyone knows how to make RSS feeds accept file includes, please let me know

In case anyone else is having this problem, I've posted one solution on my blog: Using SSI in XML for RSS

The downside to this would be that it would revert to default every time you went to a different chapter, though.

Well they're all on the same domain, so it should be easy enough to cookie it up.

The philosophical tradition of 'Rationalism' (opposed to 'Empiricism') is not relevant to the meaning here. Though there is some relationship between it and "Traditional Rationality" which is referenced sometimes.

No, here is our definition of rationality.

For the canonical article, see What Do We Mean By "Rationality"?.

Well "No Style" doesn't work well on Less Wrong since the site is built badly, and anyway I use Google Chrome which sadly doesn't have that functionality yet.

Surely you're overlooking Slytherin's positive qualities as defined by MoR. Slytherin are focused on manipulating people, concerned with power, and quite cunning. If you want to keep fooling the muggles, have good PR guys, and keep alive the dangerous, secret lore that other houses would consider too evil (so we can use it to fight aliens), you need Slytherin.

It's the only house that has consistently churned out people who actively work at defeating death!
