"Of course I am logged on! How else could I get the 'q'?!? And reply to you?!?"

Yo ... Dighton ... we've got a live one here!

Joanil ... Well, the same thing happened to me once, but it was just because a Møøse bit my sister ... and then she started seeing the letter "M" after my name.

A man who posted here as a woman (and did a lot of "flirting", apparently). Just an example of something many freepers WILL not discuss.

Seriously, it looks to be your tag line.

When next you post a comment, check the small "Tag line" box under the bit "Your reply" box in which you type your comment.

There's probably a Q in that tag-line box. Delete it, and all will be well.

"Why is it that you can't see the number no more?"

You still can, you have to leave your cusor there for at least 1.31 seconds for the box to appear. Yours says "Since 1997-12-09".

The box will stay on screen for only 5.13 seconds and then go away.
