Well, we were definitely on the same wave length! I had a very similar post written up last night, (however, not nearly as epigrammatic in style as yours), in response to reading the entire attached thread.
As I do frequently, I hit delete instead of post.
Fine commentary scattered throughout ... yours included! I rarely turn on my tv, and never have a need to listen to the babble coming from the talking-heads because of FR.
p.s. I had to look up that big word I used :)

Yeah, the same thing has happened to me -- hitting delete before the post! S&%F$#! I'm convinced the answer is write these posts in MS Word and then have a macro produce the HTML code. I have it working in principle, so when I get it done I will post on FR. One of the tricks I use is to insert the following code at the top line of each comment to put a right margin on the text: <table width="550"> |
