How many quotations are in rotation for the RQG in the upper right hand corner?
I've been noticing a larger-than-usual number of repeats today. Some have popped up ten times.
I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it.

Do you have problems, concerns or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
There used to be a bug where the first quote in the file would turn up like 40% of the time, but I haven't noticed it since we relaunched the RQG here.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I'm not completely convinced that the quotes are random (yes, I know that technically they are not. eta - nothing in computers is). But the code that produces the quote is using the standard method to produce a random record in MySQL.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
(aurelia: Google research shows that the solution to the problem is to use any other Mac browser. The problem you are experiencing has to do with a bug in IE that I cannot fix from here. Luckily, better browsers are available and free.)

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Ah, the gentle chiding instead of a scolding. Thank you Gus. I have no such problem with Safari so I'll only use IE if I feel like watching the Buffistas flee across the map.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Too bad we can't follow them as they migrate.

Yikes. When I hit message center, all I get is the Refresh option from the very bottom of the page.
ETA, I'm logged in and my subscriptions seem to be working properly.

If I only had a brain...
Same here. The main message center area is blank.

I just got the Buffista home page with only the right hand threads listed. The discussion threads were blank.
