    Although personally I would let this one go up to 10000, I'm sure there will be a few posts that disappear anyway so might as well just lock this one now...

    You decide, but if you decide to stick with this one, please lock the other one then re-open it. I don't want you to delete it and me have to struggle again!

    How about a goodbye party here tonight until the forum goes down at just after midnight and move to the new one in the morning?

    Last time several people wanted to post the 10,000th. So once somebody made that post, some other poster deleted one of their own earlier posts, making the latest post only 9999. Then they would post no. 10,000. Then somebody else would delete one of theirs and repeat the process, until eventually the thread was locked. What joy! :)
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    Popped over to MSE Labs and learnt:

    Type "whatever" (without the quotes)
    Highlight over "whatever" (without the quotes)
    Open a new window and highlight the url you want to quote
    CTRL + C to copy it
    go back to first window (where "whatever" is still highlighted) and click on the world/link icon
    paste (CTRL +V) the url in and hit return.

    Is it the ctrl-c and ctrl-v bit that is news to you? Surely not, that is the most unbelievable thing I have heard today.

    You do know about ctrl-x, ctrl-b, ctrl-y and all the other ones as well don't you? And Alt-F4 (only joking) :)
