Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

Jess, there are already so many links in that row, that it's probably more likely to be lost or confusing there than where it is.

How long will it take to add the subscribe link up there?

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

Well, the code has to be written first. Is it on the list? I don't remember.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I don't have strong feelings, but I do kind of like it out of the way up there.

Oh, I thought it was just a small tweak to existing code from the Profile page. My bad.

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

Whoot! So, DX...will you be updating your archives? Can I help you? Because my connection's mindbogglingly slow, but a) you have been tremendously useful to me with the archives in the past and b) when I go out of town next week, I'm going to have access to a T1 line.

Yup, I guess I'll have to. I need to play with the new toy. Then we need to go back and take a look at the WX threads to see if we can gin up a better way of getting them.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Cool. I'll email you. Plus, when we hit the WX threads, I'm willing to do whatever the manpower sides (checking for losts posts) require, iffen we're able to get to that point achievably.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

I have cable access and am currently sitting around all day waiting for the baby to decide it would have more room out than in. Is there anything I can do to help?

eta: You can tell me no. I won't cry. I promise.

"Subscribe" link is on the list. And "threadsuck" is marked Done! Yay!

Nobody

Would someone please program a Deena -bot poster, so that when she leaves us to have that new baby (and during the busy-ness that the new baby is sure to bring), we can at least have a cheap and meaningless relationship with her double? t /marzipan in my pie plate

edited to ask a question that actually belongs here

This question belongs partly in Bureaucracy and partly here, but if the parts that belong here can't be done, there's no sense addressing the bureaucratic side of the issue, so here goes:

Is there any way to program the board to limit how long the edit/delete option is available? I remember WXing allowed edits for a half hour. And while I thought that was a bit too strict, I'm wondering about some sort of limit. It doesn't seem right to me that someone could come back days or weeks later and edit.
