f I take out the /tag/*/, then FR comes up fine....weird Have you checked your asterisk key? It may be sending a mismatch error. If you have a Dell computer, hit FCN plus the up arrow key. If not, call your administrator or Best Buy's Geek Squad and tell them you have an I-D 10/T error.

Well, I will too then. Here's the first computer I worked with (starting in 1960). It was a room full of the these - IBM 650s.
The things put out so much heat from the vacuum tubes that there were often pizza oven hoods installed over the top to help keep them cool.

Must’ve named em efter my Aunt Susan’s reprobate son that couldn’t never learn his times tables. He’d tear up his tests ever time into tiny pieces. Since his name’s Chad, we commenced to call them there tiny test pieces Chad’s on account of they’s small.

When we was thru punching, joggling, verifying joggling, sorting, joggling, compiling, joggling, copying, joggling, dropping them, and picking them up off the floor, we then folded, stapled, mutilated, and decorated them into Christmas wreaths.
How was we to know we shoulda saved them?
