"The third canonical metasyntactic variable"
Oh yes--that was right on the tip of my tongue. (Yeah, right.)
'Sfar's I can tell, we're only allowed UBB...if that is at all related to your Unicode question.
Oh yes--is anyone able to get the "graemlins" (odd word!) and colors to work by clicking on them? Or is there something else we're supposed to be doing that I don't know about? 'Cause they sure don't work for me that way.

Feel not like the Lone Ranger, Jackie. I can't figure out how to make colours nor to make the little funny faces appear, either. Some wise one will know ...
Edit: Experiment.

Oh, sure, UBB. Like everybody knows that.
UBB = Ubiquitin B (a protein, I think)
UBB = Ultimate Bulletin Board
UBB = Ultra-Broad-Band
UBB = United Bulgarian Bank
UBB = Universal Bulletin Board
UBB = Universidad del Bio-Bio
UBB = Universitatea Babes Bolyai (Romania)
UBB = Unsaturated Vitamin B
UBB = Usage-Based Billing

If the codes do work for you with the colours, they should also enable you to insert the graemlins. If not, type the phrase that appears when you hover the mouse over them, comme ci:

grapho
themgmt
wordminstral
plutarch
moss
tang
ROB
omega
diggrifier.
Hope this helps!
[/color:green](PS) I seem to remember that "tang" is "gnat backwards - wasn't this also a name he used for a while?

Thought I would duplicate here what I said over in I&A yesterday, since I got a notice today of yet another PM here:
YOO HOO, whoever you are: I still can't get to my PM's.
eta, your post reminded of something I'd meant to say yesterday and forgot: I'm used to seeing "Error on page" when I have my pop-up stopper on, but all these times I've tried to do things here, it has NOT been on...sigh.

Hi Jackie,
When I looked up my PMs on the new board, I first got a message saying that I had stored too many PMs and should delete some before being able to receive new ones(!) I did delete a number of them (sigh), and the message did not recur. Maybe this will be of some help to you. I don't know if the ones I sent actually went through.

Anu has in fact changed the limit to 10,000. I don't know what to tell you to do if you can't get in, as I can't, but it shouldn't be necessary for anyone to delete any.

That goes for me, too, S tuart - I keep intersting posts for up to three or four weeks - if I haven't revisited them in that time, then out they go (the exception is if they contain information like urls or e-mail addies)

How can 74% of you not choose "bar"? Are these the AWADers that I knew and loved?

I'm guessing that the answer will show as either 0% or 100%, I likes to keep things simple, none of those grey areas! (hi back!)
