Amos, mon peu d'anchovie de scintillement, I have had exactly the same thing happen more times than I care to tell. I hit "submit", expecting my last brilliant post to go through...and later discover that it never did and it has been lost forever! Oh, the frustration!

I feel your pain, Mon vieil homoncule! Remember always to select and copy your latest brilliant post before sending it. Then check and see if it went through at all. If it didn't, call up the damned thread again from the beggining...paste your post back into the box AGAIN...and send it AGAIN. Repeat as many times as necessary. Eventually it will get through.

I think Max is secretly making posts vanish in a random fashion. He's doing it to slowly drive us all insane, but I have found a way to counter his perfidious plan....Heh! Heh! Heh!
