Re: Silicon Investor Problem Resolution re sporadic PM capability.

First: to any of the 20 or so individuals that have PM'ed me since Friday and not received a response, please allow me to apologize and tell you how a problem with my capability to respond was resolved (as others may have same problem).

I have been receiving PM's regularly but since Friday I could only occasionally respond.

I have been posting on, and reading the "Silicon Investor ThinkTank" thread through the disruptions. Actually, it is a thread I have participated in since Bryan Burdick of GNET/SI founded it.

As we have been restored to normalcy nobody had mentioned PM problems but mine still persisted. I mentioned this to Bryan on thread and queried if others had same problem. Several did. Bryan PM'd me asking for detail. I could not respond by PM so posted on thread. Another poster suggested the cause and recommended a fix. It worked.

Here is the cause & cure:

I typically begin a post ...

Individuals Name,
(space)
<< quote >>

Any HTML expression in the first full line of a post causes the problem.

<< caused the problem

Removing it cures the problem

Placing HTML later in the post does not affect posting PM's.

This applies to PM's not posts.

Bryan has advised that the problem will be fixed.

So thanks to BryanB and his staff who have had a rougher holiday than us.

I will respond to all PM's, that I was unable to.
