GUESS WHO JUST CALLED ME??!!! MISS LOUISE!

She's alive, had just changed phones a year ago. She's doing well, still in the senior apartments downtown and loving it (she has a view of the harbor.) She's got a new great-grandbaby who she adores.

I am SO RELIEVED to hear from her! Told her I'm going to be calling now that I have her number.

Yay 2013!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, yay! That's great news.

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

That is a great start to the year, sarameg! So great to hear! Life of Riley--great grandchildren! Totes amazing.

Browser question-- do ¹ and ⊃ look different to you? Browser/OS check with versions, plz. None of you are first-timers. You know the drill.

Bonus question: what do ¹ and &sup look like?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

First one, I see an exponent 1, and a set containment symbol. Second one, the exponent 1 again, and then "&sup". Firefox 17.0.1, Mac OS 10.6.8.

Different. iOS version of Safari, I suppose I can look up more detail if you need it.

Bonus question: first one looks like a footnote or exponent, second one doesn't appear to do anything.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I see what Hil sees, Chrome 22.0.1229.94, Windows 7.
