Ignore this; PM is all screwed up....

Indeed. Basically, it is impossible to post a second 1st-level post once there is a first, 1st-level post.

The symptoms are, as you describe. Preview looks fine. After commit, the screen shows your content, but attribution is the same as for the existing 1st-level post. But revisit the thread from the root and the original 1st level post is intact, and there is no sign of the new post.

    Ah, so *that's* what it is! I retried the operation several times and was a bit concerned. I imagine that now that the symptom is clarified that the PMDevs will be able to track it down (a little) more easily.

    Your description is perfectly consistent with what I've seen.
