<<"In the extremely rare and unlikely event that the new SI does not perform perfectly a link has been provided to the classic site here. :-) " . >> From MDC Classic to the rescue. Right now, when I log on to the new SI, I get SAC's subjectmarks and Rahim Bushiri's peoplemarks (I even get Rahim's customized top toolbar). I get no one's inbox messages (including my own -- even though a while ago I did get mine while the home page was telling me that I was SAC) even though the inbox message counter gives me a count for each of their inboxes. When I post messages or send PM's they are sent in my name. However, when I logged onto classic, everything was normal and worked correctly. I have sent all of the gory details to techsupport via e-mail and Brad via PM, but thought it was worth noting that classic was working correctly even though the new SI was massively messed up. Sounds and looks like the new SI is suffering from MPD (multiple personality disorder) <g> For that matter, after looking at all of this, I am not sure who I am anymore. Some would think that was a good thing. :) Edit: I can get to some part of my own inbox by sending myself a PM. I wonder if that is like talking to myself. I tried to bookmark myself to Rahim's peoplemarks and it would not do it. I suppose that is one way to get bookmarked though. I went to a subject that I know I have bookmarked and it would not even let me try to bookmark it to SAC's subjectmarks. It appears to recognize that I (whoever I am to the computer) have already bookmarked it. Troy (I think) WTMHouston (I hope)

I shut down and rebooted and am now me again in all respects except one: There is one PM that shows up in Classic SI that does not show up in the new SI. I wonder if I'll miss being SAC or Rahim? I wonder if they will miss me being them? Did they even know I was them or they were me? I wonder if the server will suffer from a seperation of identities crisis? Sounds like a new software idea. "Dr. Freud for Computers." If I could put a .com behind it, I could be rich -- or would it be SAC or Rahim that got rich? I wonder if my computer or SI's server is, technically speaking, blonde? <gg> :) Troy PS - it was too late to edit the last one...
