First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win. - Mahatma Gandhi

Misattributed

Where am I supposed to be looking on that page?

The section titled "Misattributed". Hitting Ctrl-f, typing in "mis" and hitting <Enter> will get you there quickly. For any other advice, try googling.

How do I do ctrl-f on a phone?

Also, that chain of events is more likely to be the exception than the rule.

That's actually how most significant progress is made. Although, significant progress is the exception rather than the rule.

Yes. So what?

Nup. First 6 hits are irrelevant. How many should I go through to find a solution to your problem of not linking to the "misattributed" section?

In any case I found this - http://www.snopes.com/first-they-ignore-you/ , which has a sweet irony considering I was quoting it at Seth.

CNN:
May Boeve, the executive director leading environmental action group 350.org, celebrated the decision but also sounded a warning against any future plans to reverse it.
"If Trump tries to go up against the leaders at Standing Rock he'll just end up looking petty and small," she said. "The fight against Dakota Access has fired up a resistance movement that is ready to take on any fossil fuel project the Trump administration tries to approve. On Dakota Access and every other pipeline: If he tries to build it, we will come."
Washington Post:
Trump, who once owned a stake worth between $500,000 and $1 million in Energy Transfer Partners, has sold the shares, his spokeswoman Hope Hicks said.

Oh sweetcheeks, I am so sorry that my problem of not linking to the "misattributed" section is causing you so much pain. I could actually link to the section, but I'll leave it to you to discover that you can just tap on the heading "misattributed" in the list of contents at the top of the page to take you there instead.

It's not causing me any pain as I don't care that it's misattributed. It remains meaningful whether Ghandi said it or not.

Also, you seem to lack an understanding of the differences between mobile browsing and desktop browsing. I'd explain it to you but your phone probably accesses the internet via WAP, perfectly befitting your vintage, and such knowledge would be lost on you.

I wish those protesters could pop over to Australia and protest the government giving a low interest loan to the Indian Adani company to build a rail link between their proposed mega coal mine and the port. There's a fuckton of greenhouse gas emissions tied up there.

Forgot to add that it is $1bn loan.

Don't bother. My phone runs on Android 6.0.1. At home it connects via WiFi, on the road via the G3 network or WiFi hotspots. My connection is set up securely enough for them. Not that any of this is relevant to searching with the equivalent of Ctrl-f. Using Firefox I just tap on menu, then "find in page", type in the word(s) I'm looking for, hit the OK button and the job is done. It does not matter if you have an Apple OS, Windows OS or Android, nor does it matter what browser you use, there's always some method exactly like that or quite similar at hand. Whatever it turns out to be, it's simple and quick.

No need to thank me. Sometimes I quite enjoy helping the needy and now I just felt generous.

Tl;dr

You clearly don't use your phone for browsing or you'd realise mobile sites often have different elements and menu options compared to their desktop counterparts. In the case of that link you provided there is no table of contents.

I just browsed to the section using the method described above, but yeah, I don't use the phone much for the internet. A desk, ADSL connection with a 250GB monthly allowance @$40, a desktop comp with two screens, a laptop and external speakers that switch between them makes for a more comfortable setup. Basically I only use the phone for the internet when I'm in bed and too lazy to walk all the way to the study.
