Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Rio, ita won't work because it is only three letters, and the search only searches for four or higher, I think.

Are you ready to be strong?

Aha. Well I do still wish that one day we will be able to search for phrases.

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

One day, my child, one day.

Jon, I had a wondering thought about scope and classes. If each post was in a div of class "paratext" or something, would a dangling t i or t b be able to leak out? I know that t p is supposed to be a div level tag, but not all browsers treat it that way. I was wondering if they kowtowed appropriately to t div itself.

And, to note that it's much easier using the quickedit t than all those <s I'm used to.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Just tried to use t div class="normaltext" around a post with an open t b tag on a dummy showthread page. In IE6, the rest of the posts below were still bold. Oh well. Nice idea, though.

Hey! The quotes have episode titles now!

Might I suggest that it credit both the name and number of the episode? e.g.:

This is a time of celebration, so sit still and be quiet.

I think that's too much, really. Other opinions?

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

I think it's too much, considering how there's a search engine and all that which will get you to the transcript of the ep in three seconds.

I don't want to be Superman. I want to stay little and be next to Mommy.

On preview vs. edit: because of the wonderful feature which shows us the crossposts first, a slow poster like me may read through two or three pages before seeing her own post. By which time, depending on how many times the phone rang, the bad tags/gibberish grammar/whatever may have been out there for an hour. It would be nice to see my post before anyone else did.

I'm not sure if this belongs in Bureacracy or the BBaBB so erm...

ita, you should have mail. With the .xl attachment.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
