Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

When you say "within", Elena, do you mean:

t badtag this is going to disappear t /badtag

or t thisbadtagwilldisappear ?

Thanks for all the fish.

I mean the first. It disappears in the post, but is also gone from the posting box when I try to edit.

How bad is the bad tag?

I couldn't get that to disappear unless I forgot the > off the opening tag. In which case, yeah. But that's always been that way.

Huh... I wonder if that's what I did. Hmmm... I'll experiment and get back to you (sometime after the weekend, I'm on my dinner break right now).

So I guess our server will be getting quite the test run once word gets out about that recent post in FF.

I feel like I should be battening down hatches or something. Assuming I could find some hatches. And knew how to batten them.

Related somewhat to Kristen's post, I had a brainwave last night after Joss posted. Would it be useful at all to do a Joss archive page where we collect his posts (and Tim's too, where they're show relevant)? I was thinking of somekind of flat html page for other sites to link to that didn't make hits on the database. Would this lessen the demand on the servers? We could have a link to the board for those who are interested in becoming "One of Us." My experience with Bronze VIP archive page was that I clicked through to the Bronze maybe once every 30-40 visits to the archive, and most people might be satisfied with jsut seeing what Joss has to say and going again...

I don't know anything about what goes on under the hood of this board, so I don't know if this would be helpful or not...

Our wings are not tired.

I like that idea Sue.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

This came up a while ago, but I don't think it was put on the list of improvements. When I use Lynx, leaving a line blank does not start a new paragraph - I have to use t br t br to get a new paragraph. I have a vague memory of something like '/n' vs '/r' spacing. Would this be an easy fix?

It should be -- Am Chau, can you put it on the list?

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty

I can put it on this list, yes; especially if someone can clarify exactly what the change needs to be. At the moment, I've got it down as 'correct problem mentioned in post 4073-- in Lynx "leaving a line blank does not start a new paragraph - I have to use t br t br to get a new paragraph"' because I don't know what the fix would be.
