Even with the three-clicks, nothing is lost ... it just takes three clicks. In between click, the edit box returns with all text intact.<br /><br />@James – I thought it was just me too!<br /><br />@JustaJeepGuy – Farmville=Facebook. No, you don’t want to go there … unless you want the alerts from Homeland Security, of course!<br /><br /> Look, squirrel!<br /><br />Hey, for the privilege of commenting on this site, 3-clicks is no price to pay!

Admittedly, calling Al Gore seems like a good idea but...well...relations have been strained between Al and I for awhile. <br /><br />Maybe try doing the "copy and save," then hit "preview," then if it looks okay hit "post comment." Granted, that's a bit like doing the Hokey-Pokey, but it also weeds out those who aren't really dedicated to expressing their opinions (grin).<br /><br />@Jamie- Regarding comments on "Johnny Optimism," I turned that feature off quite a while ago because people (not unreasonably) assumed that since that's also my comic, it would be a good place to post political remarks ("Under Obamacare, Johnny would just die!") <br /><br />But for me, Johnny is a whole other world and mindset. Still, the ability to leave comments helps people feel more involved, and part of the big, sick "Johnny Optimism" community. So I think I'll try turning them on again and see what happens.<br /><br />Although presumably, everyone will have the same posting problems that they have here. But of course, in Johnny's world, things are <i>expected</i> to go wrong.Stilton Jarlsberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14503164551782304564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8993108951931633758.post-26035285042800620872011-04-08T15:56:39.392-05:002011-04-08T15:56:39.392-05:00I usually have to hit "preview" first, t...I usually have to hit "preview" first, then post it.
