Yes, yes, this page has been kind of sketchy for the past few days. I foolishly decided to be responsible and test the code though this online validation thingy; only to discover what you guys undoubtly noticed right off; i.e. that this page is frelled. So I got it into my head to fix the numerous errors myself with no professional, much less sane, help. After two days of re-write after re-write I'm declaring this blog to be offically "good enough, for me, thank you very much".
Of course, a not even cursory glance will prove that the thing is still, uhm shall we say, unstable; but I'm on the verge of nervous collapse. This is not an exaggeration.

Do you, or someone you know, think that RAM refers to a lawnmower on hooves, that JAVASCRIPT is the working title of a screenplay dealing with the perils of caffeine addiction, or that rebooting requires a cobbler? Then congratulations you've located a superlative subject!
Fortunately, emotidorks respond well to tutelage. Here are some links to help:

Oh, and incidentally, this is the second time I've attempted this post. The first time around I deleted the entire thing accidentally. "Back up copy?" " What means, back up copy?"
