    From Ed Vance to Mike Powell on Mon Mar 24 14:35:47 2025

    A few minutes ago I finished writing a Long Winded new post in the echo about Radio Repairing (sorry I can not remember the exact name of the forum since I didn't write it down before starting this post).

    This happened once before a long time ago too.
    PEBKAC ERROR- problem exists between keyboard and chair.

    I know (think) it isn't Your BBS, IT'S ME.

    I had used the quote button and then started writing, got called away for a HoneyDo for a short time, then finished writing and tapped the submit button. Nothing happened so tapped Submit again,,,,,and again,,,,and again.

    Before leaving the forum I looked to see if the msg I wrote was at the bottom of the list, it wasn't.
    So tried changing to the Parent Directory then selecting the echo that I was in and looked at the bottom of the msgs but mine wasn't there.

    Then I wrote You about the experience.

    It is possible something caused the board to recycle during that time.
    That doesn't often happen but can.

    There was one blank message from you in one of the echoes but I didn't not
    see any duplicates anywhere.

    I can't remember now what echo I was in when that happened
    Thanks for taking the trouble to look for Me.

    In My thoughts I was thinking what got written may have still been sticking in RAM Memory or taking up space on the HDD.

    It might have briefly but it wouldn't have for too long. Synchronet is
    usually good at cleaning up after itself.

    That is my brain on at least some days. ;)
