I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

So, this is weird. I can't log out. When I click the link, the page reloads but nothing changes. I don't normally log out on my machine, but I'm using my husband's laptop right now.

This is a known bug.

Okay, thanks. If I delete the cookie, that should log me out, right?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

It's such a lovely place.

Weird thing happened to me in Firefly thread. I tried to do a text heart thingy (less than 3), and it chopped off the rest of my post. Thankfully, I had done the "watch n post" in text editor, and copy/pasted into the thread, so it was a fairly easy edit. But thought I'd mention the weirdness. Doesn't seem right, the board can't show some heart? That's all we got in this place.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, the "less than" makes the board think you are trying to make an HTML tag.

Jesse has it. "<" starts an HTML tag, and if it isn't closed with a ">" or contains a non-allowed tag, then it all disappears.

If you want to use "<" for something other than a tag, then you need to type the equivalent entity - &lt;.

Like this - <3.

For this and other HTML entities, you can look at ita's entities page.

How soon I forget. Makes perfect sense, when it's not midnight. Thanks folks!
