[01:24:39] <takyon_> what is up with that headline bytram
[01:24:47] <takyon_> "Hoarding Growing with Aging Population "
[01:24:55] <takyon_> INNNNNG
[01:27:57] <Bytram> sorry was afk... what's wrong with the headline?
[01:28:36] <Bytram> oh, wait.
[01:29:35] <Bytram> I 2nded the story. what is wrong with it?
[01:30:30] <Bytram> and that was the same headline that was in the submission. I do not see any problem with it?

[01:32:24] <takyon_> its doesn't seemed grammatical correct to moi

[01:36:06] <takyon_> I couldn't believe my eyes. what have you done, hugh
[01:36:08] <Bytram> Hoarding (an overwhelming compulsion to hold on to everything) is Growing with an Aging Population (a population of people which has an increasingly large percentage that are old and getting older)
[01:36:30] <Bytram> I still see no problem with the title.
[01:36:42] <takyon_> yeah ok

[01:53:36] <Bytram|away> cmn32480: hope your new rig is working out to be as good as, if not better than, you'd hoped!
[01:56:27] <takyon_> merging stories seems to give me Breaking News
[01:56:30] <takyon_> I don't like it
[01:56:37] <takyon_> TheMightyBuzzard
[01:56:49] <takyon_> it
[01:56:52] <takyon_> 's the topics list
[01:57:32] <Bytram|away> I noticed that happened when I merged the 4 "panama papers" stories, too.
[02:05:34] <takyon_> it's because it's the first one
[02:05:49] <takyon_> I think I discussed this before but I think I'll do a feature request later

[11:42:31] <takyon_> I was about to post the gringer story
[11:42:44] <takyon_> but a comment towards the end of it indicates that
[11:43:00] <takyon_> "I have answered most of the questions that were put in the previous submission, and will put those answers as comments in this post if the editors don't transfer what I've already emailed to them."
[11:43:24] <takyon_> so I'm hesitant to post that just yet. who is responsible for the responses?

[14:43:34] <CoolHand> takyon: I have no idea... I wonder who he emailed the answers? or if it was even an actual "email"??
