During my third year of law school, I was Editor-in-Chief of our environmental law journal. That was my first exposure to the use of "Lorem Ipsum", which is a publishing technique that uses nonsensical Latin text as a placeholder while designing a page layout. Since similar text is used in Web development, there are apps and sites that will generate the text for developers (see, e.g., Lipsum). Now some creative space enthusiasts have created a text generator with a space theme: Space Ipsum. As a fellow space geek, I have to love the site. However, as an editor, I think it defeats the purpose of the Lorem Ipsum technique, because I catch myself reading the text rather than assessing the page layout. Oh, well. I guess it's the price we pay for following our passions!
