Yes. Sorry about that. Seems to have been some weird interaction between a longstanding known increasingly frequent PM bug and the fact that I replied to your post when it was in the "Notes" section.

Trust me, it cost me (and NodeReaper -- many thanks to the unnamed monk that operated tirelessly behind that id this morning!) considerable effort to ensure that the mess was cleaned up :) I'll strive harder to notice when the time is between 8.00 and 9.00 am UTC and resist the urge to post between those times in future.

It's a shame this problem still persists after all these years, but I guess that what comes from having to rely on security through obscurity, and the whims of a single godhead.


With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

The start of some sanity?
