Check Site First Before Posting

You can prevent this from happening to your own posts by doing a quick search (the search tool really is very effective with good results) to see if somethings's on the site or not before posting it. Of course it can't be helped in a case when someone else posted it and you posted the same thing before I got around to approving either one, but that's a little more rare. Thanks. - Susan

    Ah, we\'re getting into the wonder world of duplicate articles! I think we\'ve hit the big time! :P

    Next thing you know we\'ll have to start adding a CowboyMelHurtig option to every poll... (er, inside joke)

    Gwah?! CowboyMelHurtig???

    Yeah, it was cool to see three people post the same CAP article almost at once today.

    At least we know we\'re staying on top of the news. It\'s also nice that I don\'t have to try to know everything anymore--it\'s a relief to just have to know almost everything. ;)

    I got his <a href='http://slashdot.org/pollBooth.pl?qid=1040'>joke</a>. It's really old, really traditional and really really geek oriented. You should add a CowboyNeal or CmdrTaco choice to a poll, just once :-)<p><p>---<br>"History does not repeat itself, but it does rhyme" Mark Twain <br />"The greatest price of not participating in politics is being governed by your inferiors."

    Susan, you are a mother, you will always know everything, until the teacher says you don\'t(which is a hell of a let down),...you get smarter again, after the kids leave home, for some strange reason.
