When I use the back button here, the previous page refreshes and jumps back to the top. Is that the normal function now? - not2fast Oct 30, 11:23 2
- Yes, unfortunately. It has to do with the page telling the browser not to cache it (to ensure that it's always up to date) -- nm - Beryllium the Impaler Oct 30, 11:23 1

- I wrote the poll thinking of things that you'd only be doing because of tickertalk. I'm not cheating on a poll that I wrote. *laughing*. - Diva Oct 30, 11:22 3
  - Maybe "cheating" wasn't the right word... I thought you wanted stuff from everyday life, though I guess your example was Vegas-related. -- nm - secretslacker Oct 30, 11:22 2
    - There was the recent time where I mistakenly introduced a co-worker as a 'cow'. I still have trouble looking at her eye-to-eye. - Diva Oct 30, 11:24 1

- the mere act of going there indicates a commitment to TT - slutty zombie loosilu Oct 30, 11:20 1
  - I think the next step is that people need to spread the ST mindset like a virus... - secretslacker Oct 30, 11:21
- That's not to say that you don't win anyway, Diva, cause of who you live with :) -- nm - secretslacker Oct 30, 11:20

      - Hustling her Sweet Klingon Ass on the strip? -- nm - secretslacker Oct 30, 11:25
  - Yeah, but wouldn't that be the case when you gather 30 (or was it more) people from TT? -- nm - secretslacker Oct 30, 11:20
Nice. Nate Silver's slamming of the IBD/TIPP poll (the one where young voters were leaning heavily McCain) last week spawned a WSJ article. -- (link) - Mop Oct 30, 11:18 1
- He's gotten new, very funny glasses btw. -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 30, 11:20

        Some of us remember the... uncomfortable times. -- nm - nubby Oct 30, 11:22 1
