We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

So maybe I'm infected with something and must take this to Technology instead.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Suela, they're probably thanks to some spyware that inadvertently got loaded.

Yep. Maybe Gator?

Yep, I took it to Buffistech and think I have it taken care of. Many thanks, sorry for the disruption.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

Yep. Maybe Gator?

Or Bonzai Buddy, or that damn thing that comes with WeatherBug, or, or . . . . There's tons of them.

If I only had a brain...

Auto-link editing apparently can't handle embedded spaces and quotation marks. See

deborah grabien "Literary Buffistas: Don't Speak Latin in Front of the Books" Mar 25, 2003 2:52:12 pm EST

for an example.

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

I just got this error message when trying to post in Bitches:

I don't understand Betsy. What can't you do?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

What can't you do?

If you look at the link in Deborah's post, it ends with /Marta's_Journal.html, but if you mouseover and look at the page it actually links to, it ends in /Marta. The code that automatically converts a URL into a link cuts it off at the apostrophe.

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty

IIRC, at some point this was discussed and it was considered that URLs didn't have apostrophes in them. Back in this thread quite some way. Would that be what's causing this problem?
