#51114: this code doesn't run. The problem is that the scripts are executed in the <head> before the spinner.gif is in the document. So when endless_pagination.js first executes it responds to the first 'scroll' event but the test in readyForNextPage fails and does an immediate return. No more scroll events will occur and it is done forever.

#49422: In post.html, I think {{ post.title }} should be replaced with {{ page.title }}.
I don't think the variable post (which is used in the iterator in index.html) is available in the post.html layout. page.title is available courtesy of Jekyll (see the Jekyll wiki Template-Data)--Tim Carter #49422: In post.html, I think {{ post.title }} should be replaced with {{ page.title }}.

#49578: Thanks for the link to my post about Mike Cameron. You've got a nice blog here, yourself. I eclesialpy like this line from your own review of the Cameron signing: He strikes out a lot. Not that strikeouts really matter, but they can be frustrating to watch, so I threw that on here. That's one of the best, shortest analyses of strikeouts I've ever read.--GjyvGjwRVKdIuFAeUHY #49578: Thanks for the link to my post about Mike Cameron. You've got a nice blog here, yourself.
