Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Sophia, every so often Firefox/Mozilla on OS X will just go wonky on me, requiring that I restart Firefox/Mozilla. I've had your specific problem several times.

Is this a recent problem? I was cutting and pasting just fine on OS X last night, but I haven't tried it today yet.

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

the maintain links page (which seems to be working fine now)

For the record, I haven't changed this at all -- but I did find a lurking foreach in the links.php.

Finding the evil foreaches is hard, since some of the formulations (70%?) work, so it's both searching and eyeballing to track the puppies down.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

It is a recent problem. I will try again later, after a restart. I was just having trouble reading the Jack Bauer whitefont in Natter this morning

I'm inclined to cast a wary eye of suspicion on Firefox in general. Since I installed it on my laptop, both that program and AOL OS X have been very freeze-up prone. I've had to do more force quits since Friday than I normally have to do in a month.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Oh, I was wondering if this was just me! Yeah, every now and then all of the text fields will just stop responding. Restarting Firefox fixes it.

I restarted the web server. Sorry if I stepped on anyone's toes.

Was there a problem [eta: I see there was]? The Plesk vendor was working on the system, since the upgrades have frelled stuff behind the scenes.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

The board was down earlier this morning (at least between 2-4am or so board time).

Everything seemed to be fine, except the web server wasn't running. No problems with Plesk. I don't know if they fixed the problem and just didn't restart the server, or if there's still a problem I don't know about.

BTW, I don't have command-line root access any more.
