Shutter, the phpMyAdmin note below is something you have to do for the site? It's not something we do locally...

If you're copy/pasting text to this website, here's the fucked up thing.
It can preview correctly but not post (error)
That's because only strict ascii characters are allowed. Not full UTF-8
You can't see the offending chars some times.
Use this web page to "Remove Diacritics" then copy/paste the result. That always works.

I believe it's a technical probably with how this site POSTs the textbox stuff. Some ways limit you to strict ascii.. Weird they don't have better error checking, or just allow full UTF-8 like most sites.

The site has full UTF-8..the problem seems to be in the character setting "Latin 1"

Go into phpMyAdmin. Select your SMF database. Browse the smf_settings table. Look for an entry (variable field) named 'global_character_set'. It might not exist, in which case skip the next. Does it have a value? If it's "Latin-1" or "ISO-8859-1", there's your problem. If it's already "UTF-8", the problem lies elsewhere (something is overriding the selection of UTF-8).

This problem started several weeks ago when they moved the site..

Snow, correct, you guys don't have to do anything..I was just showing the possible problem..

The phpMyAdmin is in the Cpanel of my account for the server..

Nice EU on the Himalaya photo. I had not seen that before.

By the way Snow, that airplane picture (avporn) from Issaquah that you posted a few days ago was a Lockheed Lodestar. They were fairly popular jumpships for a while, but they found higher-paying service in the drug trade. They were fast and could haul a lot, especially some modified versions such as the LEARSTAR. It had phenomenal specs for a piston engined prop plane, able to fly 300 mph and go coast to coast nonstop flying slower with a light load. They instantly fell out of favor when a LEARSTAR crashed  in Washington after stalling on jump run.

A stock Lodestar in a post stall spin was hard to right and return to controlled flight. A LEARSTAR much harder still, becoming impossible if the CG was too far aft.

Alice said Cooper had his right hand in the briefcase at all times,,,


but I recall reading something else about Cooper using his "right hand" recently,, still looking

Here it is,, hard to read this copy..

"THE ATTACHE CASE WHEN HE WAS MOVING TOWARDS THE LAVATORY. HE WAS CARRYING THE CASE ON ITS SIDE IN HIS LEFT HAND WITH HIS RIGHT HAND IN THE CASE."

Sounds like Cooper was right handed...

Okay my theory on the spookiness of that Blogger link Sheridan created right when I bought his book.

Notice he had 3 blogger links ...only one had an entry. The one for Frightful Laughter.
I think he was trying to contact a literary agent named Brown. I think at the time I found him trying to contact Brown elsewhere.

So he was actively trying to get his book published outside of Lulu, when I purchased his book.
His book may have only been up on Lulu for a short amount of time.

Did people check this website ..Sheridan was using Blogger here in 2008, whether on purpose or accidently.

I think I found the text he used here, back then at the site of a literary agent named Brown.
Heck, I'll just pretend he submitted in 2008 it to me for publication. This is the evidence.
I'll argue my identity was known to him as "Brown" then, not snowmman.

why do you say that.
if you're carrying a half-open briefcase horizontally, I would use my strongest hand on the bottom.
The weaker hand inside pretending to hold wires for a bomb.
remember, it's a fake bomb. Why would the strong hand be inside the briefcase?

I think that says he's left-handed

Definitely suggests right handed..

The weight is minimal, you want max dexterity inside the case, I carry open my laptop in my left but am right handed. Why.. so I can use my right to open doors or grab a beer.

He went to the lav, held the case in his left to allow use of his right, he is right handed.
