I've been using Advanced REST Client [1] for quite a while now. Have not yet encountered anything about it that I don't like. That's usually a good sign of quality software -- to me at least. [1] https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/a

I've actually been using this to convert large PDF files to HTML to be displayed in-browser. It's for my work, so I don't feel comfortable posting a link to the demo instance here. It is definitely the best solution I've found so far. The o

Supply and demand? Really? There is no limit, no ceiling for things that truly inspire. If you make something with passion and skill - something that inspires others - you are probably going to do very well in life.

You neglected to mention that since 9/11, it would be almost impossible to do now what the hijackers did then. If that were attempted now, a whole plane load of vigilantes would rise up against the hijackers.
