Responding to merlyn's expectations of the status of CB
content, "I expect that my CB chat will be transitory,
viewed by the audience that I expect is there (as seen by
a glance to "other users") and then disappear into the
ether."
If you happen to be chatterboxing when google
spiders perlmonks your words will be immortalized in google's cache.
Update: Updated the cache link since
pages in google's cache eventually expire, point still being
that CB comments may persist outside of perlmonks and be
accessible to the wide world for some time.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
