Oh my, that was painful. I now have much pent-up blogging to catch up on -- there are so many drafts here that they have scrolled off the bottom of my Blogger list.

The delays were mine.  I was compulsive about manually confirming rapid incident-response and lock-down processes before I would would post anything more to my blogs.  I'm now satisfied that if there's another bad-upload failure, I can respond quickly.

There's more to do. The critical path I followed (if you can believe that) is one that has all sites up and operating. I now need to de-stress, collect my thoughts, and update my notes, etc.

And we do seem to be on the air here. Heh.

updated 2004-08-31T20:55Z I don't know what is happening.  I was ranting to Anderbill about how Blogger messed up my posting.  When we looked at the HTML in our browsers, I saw that I must have misplaced a <br /> element.  That is what broke the element that made the nice green color and other features.
 
I just now came back into Blogger prepared to eat humble crow [?!] and fess up.  I thought that Blogger must have messed up because there were other weird things happening and I figured wrecking this page must be more of the same.  That's the leap I took.  And I needed to confess that I think I was the one who blew the colors in the first post.
 
Well, it is weirder than that.  When I came back in to correct the presentation of this particular note, all of the HTML was working just fine, and the preview is just great!
 
Now I don't know what to say.  I'm happy to have the blog working, and I am miffed that there are ways Blogger rewrites my carefully-tuned HTML that makes FrontPage look like an extremely well-crafted HTML editor.  This is so weird.
 
I am going to stop now, cross my fingers, and post this.  I have now lost the urge to do a guest appearance on causticTech.  Maybe next time.

I do know what happened.  I forget that, when I paste in HTML from another page that has line breaks in its markup, those will be turned into <br /> elements by Blogger.  I asked for that problem.  The problem I didn't ask for was the fact that line breaks inside of a tag (i.e., between attributes) lead to the same mindless behavior.  This leads me to an interesting rant about executable specifications that will come out soon, somewhere.
