These are repurposed railcars stripped and dropped off the coast of Georgia to
become part of an artificial reef. Gives the fish something different to habituate.

in spite of the nightmares
truth is considered foreign influence, world peace is a threat to national security
Good mornng, Qms!
I have been busy having fun, haven't followed up much on news, so I thought you might bring me and the rest of us up to date with the Stein campaign. I read that she had made a very hawkish statement about Iran, iirc. I read that her staff had to walk it back, and that she made some clarifying statement.
I have slept since then, wonder if you can elaborate on the details.
Thanks for the OT, and any info you have on Steins alleged faux pas.

having fun is the right idea
.
I get the daily Stein press releases
in my inbox, usually just scan & delete
know nothing about her alleged statement
will say, her platform is much less hawkish
than the other two by a wide margin
enjoy your vakay

Maybe this was it.
Putin is a war criminal. Nothing about Iran.

Hola QMS. I often copy links and post them with simple
cut/paste. Actually, usually I copy the site address and not a pre-existing link. Don't recall ever using link tool. So, I;ll grab a site address and give it a shot:
RT-text
not what you was looking for I'm sure. It says, below,
so dunno how the tool is ss'posed to werk. something about alt-l??
Linkydoo not that i can see
cool with the railcar reef, are those who do that work "reefers"?
be well and have a good one
That, in its essence, is fascism--ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or by any other controlling private power. -- Franklin D. Roosevelt --
Hokay, happens when you post.
Copy URL and post to top line, contrive a name for it and put on second line, dunno whuffo, but contrive title and put in 3rd line, click ok box or hit carriage return, when you save it should turn into a link, but not while you are posting it.

thanks EL

reefers indeed
yeah, I notice posters here frequently will have a hyperlink embedded in the
body of an essay, which on my screen shows up as a blue word.
Thought it would be good to figure out how to do it.
Followed JtC's explanation in the FAQ's
but doesn't seem to work on this machine. BTW, second button, not third.
No biggie. Can always cut and paste. But if the text you want to share
is embedded in a long list of comments .. cumbersome at best. Oh well.
Never claimed to be a programmer.
cheers
