Just saw this announcement over in WX:

Off to permanentize our stuff.
Have you had any luck with the download script I sent you?
Tom, no I haven't, but I really haven't had much chance to play with it. Last I looked, it was still closing the perl window before I had a chance to see why it was aborting, but I haven't been able to follow up on that.
If she confirms, I can fix it.
C'est moi. That was when I had just barely delurked and I was very scared. (Shy, that is, not ax-murderer scared.) But it was fun! And I got home that night to realize that the cable had gone out 10 minutes into the finale becuase of storms, so I was extra-glad I mustered the courage to go. Thanks meara!
OK, Brenda, I'll ID you ASAP.
I was thinking maybe I'd take names and match up people who forgot to do Secret Santa (like me). Does anyone have any objections?
If not, I'll do an announcement in Press.
Sophia, I just did that. ooops.
edit: Sophia - since I was already matched, I figured this way none of the unmatched would have to get spoiled.
That's fine msbelle-- I am fine to be unspoiled!
Reposting from BBaBB because Jesse reminded me that I meant to ask earlier and Jon semeeee (Not sem-eye) stomped on me..

From the FAQ
In order to keep them unspoiled, we limit discussion of current episodes to specific threads. These are the NAFDA threads. If it's not labeled as a NAFDA thread, don't talk about current episodes in it.
Are the NAFDA threads intended to be independant now? Or is, for instance, reference to current Buffy allowed in, say, the current Angel thread? This was raised in Firefly last week, but I didn't see a resolution.

I think it's generally best to watch the references to the most recent episodes. We have people like Matt, who are on tape delay for one show but not the others, or shrift, who's on tape delay for Buffy and Angel, but not Firefly. So if you want to refer to something, maybe whitefont it and warn why?
