Yoo Chung - A Scoutle module for Drupal

Crud. I have no idea what is going on, then.

Not exactly. I did go through the preview but then I had the option between preview and "save" and pressing save just took me back to the original form with only the preview again

That explains it. I had made preview mandatory, but I didn't realize that Drupal didn't tell the user about it. I've made comment preview optional now.

Nope, no error message. After pressing save I was simply redirected to the comment form with only the preview button available (as if I started typing) but with my text still in the form

That's odd. The logs say that your comment was definitely not spam, and my own non-login test commenting worked. Was there any error message? Maybe there's something unexpected going on with "Anonymous posters must leave their contact information" ... BTW, thanks for the comment! Maybe I *will* try something for IntenseDebate and Drupal one of these days. :)

I tried to leave a comment but can't. Either I'm getting caught in moderation or the commenting is b0rked

Yoo - Ivins not murdered

I have no idea what you're trying to say here, but to be clear Bruce Ivins was a Caucasian Roman Catholic.

Great. How come Irvin is not a muslim or connected to Al-Qauda, or whatever Islamic terror groups you can find. What an irony. White man form your country. Or was he an aethiest.

Yoo - Oregon should invade Salem

I don't know much about the Middle East myself, as I totally do not understand what Israel's motivations for their current strategy are. :/

Thank you for this analogy. I'm terribly ignorant about the middle east. Every little bit helps.

Yoo - Rick Warren at the inauguration

I just hope they're ruining the inauguration so they don't have to ruin anything else. Wishful thinking, I know ...

Happy New Year!

Obama has ruined his inauguration by doing this.

Yoo - Water from a long, long time ago

Now that I think about it, maybe I should have mentioned something about a spectrograph in the radio wavelength range. ^_^;;

OK - (smacking my head) - I just noticed the word "fingerprint" on the visual aid. DUH!! It's all clear now. Sorry for all the trouble. You are very kind to put up with me! :-)

I had no idea there were giant water masers, myself. :)

I actually DO know a little about radio waves - but obviously not enough!! Detecting elements blows my mind!

You probably already know about certain frequencies of microwaves resonating with water molecules and heating them (although microwave ovens don't actually work by resonance), and this is just the converse. The water molecules are excited to a specific energy level and emit coherent radio waves, through a process whose details are hazy to me but it's pretty much a laser (albeit a mind-boggingly gigantic one). The radio waves are redshifted to about four times their original wavelength by the time they reach us, but they're still quite high a frequency at about 6GHz. So yes, the water molecules were detected with radio waves, at a range also called microwaves. (I'm always confused about the boundary between plain radio waves and microwaves. :)

I'm confused ... (as usual) ... they detected water molecules with radio waves?

Who throws a shoe? ... Honestly.
