hip deep in pie

I was having slowness issues at home, but I realized it was trying to load 66 messages at a time on my slow modem. I changed my messages down ot 20, and it was much better.

There's a system preference to change the amount of anti-aliasing done. It's worth a try to play with that setting to see if there's one that looks better to you.

Dude. And Sophia. I thank you.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

All of the sudden it seems like I always have to use the br tag for any sort of line break. I just posted in natter with 4 hard returns between my three sentances, and they still all ran together.

Let me try now...

See- there are 2 "enters" in that post between together and "let me try now..."

It seems like I didn't used to have to do it, or am I nuts?

That's always been the case. Two hard returns gets you a new paragraph. One hard return gets you nothing except the end of any quick-edited text.

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

Are you posting from the same browser you always have?

There were some users ... Lynx IIRC ... who used to have that problem.

Huh. I went into edit, removed the line-breaks, then put them back in, and the paragraph break appeared. Weird. Can you do another one, Sophia, and I won't "correct" it this time?

I am posting from Opera 6. I was using Opera 5 and/or Opera 6 beta, I think.

I am using 2 or three or four hard returns, not just one.

This last one that I did has returns between "I think" and "I am"
