Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Sweet. Thanks, Polgara. We've been discussing First Book and Heifer.org as contenders.

We should do an Alias fundraiser and get the Vartan lurve. But would we have to change our names to Aliasistas?

That's the beauty of it - you could call yourselves anything you want. Except possibly Aliasistas.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

No big thing, but I've noticed something in the quotes: sometimes when it's a bit of dialogue, the Speaker's Name field (or whatever it's called) is filled in, and it (apparently) doesn't need to be, since there's the speaker's name before each line. So, that could be cleaned up by someone...

If that makes any sense.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

You know what would be really neat? In about version 4?

If we could search a member's profile. Right now I am looking for Laura Holt's email, and although I can find a post by her pretty easily, it would be nice to be able to type in her user name and come up with her profile. I don't think there would be big anonymous-type issues, because all you see in someone's profile is what they put there.

Again, i have no idea how hard this would be to impletment or if it is at all possible-- and it is really just something to wish for in the far-distant future.

I think that's a great idea Sophia, especially since we can't (I don't think) just do a thread search.

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

There is a beta search here: [link] It will not search on words of 3 letters or less.

Who rocks more than ita?

No one.

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

ita rocks mightily. What a great searcher -- it gives you the WHOLE post!

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

What a great searcher -- it gives you the WHOLE post!

But it still can't find ita...

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

I think she likes it that way. She gets to be undercover.
