Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Natter X was fast b/c of the Oscars. I don't think Natter 7 has an explanation, unless it was post-Firefly weirdness.

I love ita for bring on the data.

God. What could we possibly had to discuss at that rate?

Create dates and end dates are all in the database. No need to do heavy lifting.

I gotta admit, for all the bullshit consensing, some of those thread titles are damned funny. Okay, maybe even many -- now that I can't remember the titles that were inevitably robbed.

Your tag here.

Yeah, I figured as much. It was more of a mindless exercise to talk myself into sleeping.

...and I must say Natter just bitch-slapped the Bitches on the posting rate... IJS

Hey, Jon, how do you feel about a cleanup project? We have a fair amount of the styling in css, but there are still some background colours, etc lying around the HTML, and I'll really like to tuck them away (I have dreams of CSS positioning too, but let's be realistic).

If we're ever to implement the outstanding style choice mods, I think this should be done first.

Also, I'd like to schedule regular backups of the site. But the whole thing will be down for the duration. I have no idea how long this'll take -- I'm thinking of doing a Saturday night timing test to see.

OK. Can I have my own test environment?

Sure. I'll e-mail you when it's set up.
