That quote from Intervention was in the original airing. Maybe it was cut in the FX re-runs.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I think Nou meant that the version he posted was the aired version, which is not what appears in the upper-right corner.

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

The upper right-hand corner said "I am not having sex with Spike! But I'm starting to think you are." I felt dumb pointing out the distinction even though it really matters to me, so I just posted the new version and hoped the person in charge would look it up to find out the difference.

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

Done.

It's best to be as specific as possible, because I'm incredibly lazy. Also because people will obsess.

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

Just trying out a theory:

I want to see if the <pre> tag somehow negates the <font> tag in the following line.

If I'm right, then this line shouldn't be white
fonted in Netscape 4.78

edit: And it isn't! God, I love the scientific method!

Next hypothesis, put the <pre> tag outside of the <font> tag.

What happens now,
I wonder?

edit: That works in Netscape!

Okay, if you want to combine the <pre> tag with a <font> tag, the <pre> tag must come first, or the <font> tag won't work in Netscape.

Whence link clicked (interview):

Q. Is jengod really a goddess? A. We like to think so. She was the mistress of the original Buffista web pages on Geocities, the impetus behind our multiple redundancies, has divine knowledge of the industry, and is incredibly quick with a shooting script quote. And have you seen her interview with Andy Hallett? If she's a goddess, though, she's the lovely, modest and benevolent type, not a bimbo Hellgoddess.

Is there any way for the Phoenix to keep track of open tags so it can close them all at the end of a message? That way if I mess up and forget to close one, only I look silly.
