#1 I'm sorry that you're having to deal with such a mess.
It is much appreciated for all that you do to bring us Rantburg.
Thanks, and I wouldn't mind registering either, if that would help.

#3 Yesterday I got in once via a Google Image search for "curly toed slippers" (don't ask). The first page of results had a July 2006 copy of the Defender-Scimitar and Times Picayune. Click on the pic, click on the googlecache, bada bing! I'm in. LOL.

#4 Hang in there, Fred. I'd like to say something corny like 'the free world is depending on you', but that's a given. :)

#7 Why not just go straight to Oracle?

#8 Because of the amount of code I'd have to rewrite.

#12 Oracle Aplication Server running on Linux interfacing with a separate Oracle database server also on Linux. Then you could do the code in PL/SQL. I know, it's easy for me to say and in reality it would be a heck of a lot of work. But it would be robust. Keep up the good work and keep smiling and it'll piss 'em off all the more.

#13 I'll try and fix it today. I know where the problem is, just have to think about the solution.

#14 Loves me some 404, baby. Maybe we could dress it up as long as it's decided to move in.

"This page has gone 404, infidel! The page you requested will return insh'allah."

#15 I got one yesterday that addressed me by name (TRAILING WIFE, all in caps, no less -- I don't know whether someone was being emphatic or case sensitive, or what). Quite unnerving.

#16 While we're talking technicalities, there's a minor bug I talked about a couple of days ago : when one wishes to use the two po*rn pics found in ye ole RB Stash'o pics, the "po*rn" and the "po*rno-jeremy", even when there's just the code for the pic and no text, the words-filter delete the entry, and so, the two pics are basically unusable, which is a shame. I don't suggest altering the words-filter or anything, just to rename the pics.

That's nothing. Early yesterday morning, one 404 page laughed at me, mocked my penis, and bitchslapped me. I felt very inadequate.
