Huh - maybe, 'cause it's stopped doing it now and all I did was go eat dinner.

I love when things are that easy to fix. Yay dinner!

On the downside, I'm now dealing with a very annoying and persistant trout bone in my throat. Which um, probably has a tech-related solution and is therefore on topic?

Mostly lurking...
Does anyone have a set of headphones with a built-in microphone that they're not using (like one that would have come with a cell phone or something)? I need one for my online summer courses and thought I'd check to see if anyone had one lying around before I order one.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What's the OS X version of "reconnect at logon" for a network drive?

Our wings are not tired
ita, you need to add the drive to your startup items. In the users pane of the system prefs you can select startup items for each user. Just add the volumes you want mounted to the list using the "+" button.

okay y'all...
I just received a beta invitation to dropbox -
2 gigs of storage space free that can sync between computers (mac & windows) and you can access your files on the web.
when a person joins up, they get 10 invitations. is anyone here interested in this and if so would they use their beta invitations to invite others? I only have 5 or fewer left and we could get as many people signed up as interested if we use some of our beta to help others out.
use my profile addy if you are interested in an invitation.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Random thing I just learned: In Javascript, there is a value "NaN", which means "Not a Number". There's a isNaN() function to test for this.
How come I didn't know this?
Someday, someone should write a book on the philosophy of Null, empty strings, NaN, #error, etc....
