Hi,

I just got a complaint about Leiterian Chronicles chapter 11 having alot of black boxes in it, so I went to check it and saw just that--black boxes with question marks where apostrophes should be. I also noticed that many other stories are also affected to a greater or lesser extent, including my old stories. I'll be back in a minute with details.

Actually I don't know what the diamonds with question marks represent. Maybe spaces? Double spaces? Nothing looks like it's missing. We just get diamond between sentences, but not between all sentences. I am using Mozilla Firefox. Stories recently posted do not appear to be affected. Does anyone else see this? Can you figure out the pattern?

I noticed it in Archive stories (not in the last ammendments). Usually quotes, apostrophes, exclamation marks are turned to black diamond with a question mark inside. But I couldn't find any pattern. I have, e.g., only one in Alelou's work:

Koss - G - May 03, 2008
Commander T�Pol Joins Starfleet - NC-17 - May 16, 2008
Commander Tucker Suffers from Intrusive Daydreams - PG-13 - June 04, 2008

But I also noticed that happens more frequently in the titles than in the text of the stories (e.g., that in second place on the list has no strange marks once open).

8) Oh, cool. I'd noticed that awhile ago but forgot to nag anyone about it.

Sometimes procrastination really pays off.
