So delighted to see you in the comment stream today, Lanny! A WordPress quirk that might be new to you: If you hit enter between your teaser and your link, you will see a box with a post preview (like your comment today). If you use a colon or just a space instead, that won’t happen next time. It’s not a huge deal; it just makes for extra scrolling when cruising the comments to give feedback.

Hi Adrienne,
I’m guessing you meant to post this in today’s SOL post (September 7) rather than last week’s. If you post it to the new link, you’ll get more views.
