it's taken me this long to figure out why some of my older entries are showing random " ? " dotted where foreign alphabets (ü ö ä é è ç à ô ê etc...) or " ... " or " , " or " ' " ought to be. i thought it had to do with firefox not being able to read the symbols... but it now appears that when the blogging-software MT was upgraded, the automatic transfer or 'translation' of old entries and the old paths into 'new' addresses didn't seem to take into account of these strange alphabet-symbols i occassionally drop here and there...
sob. this means i have to go over 600 entries to correct the unnecessary typos... madness.
please bear with me... while i rectify this terrible mishap! ... and i thought technology was supposed to make life easier?! ... poooo!

Posted by: f. on Friday, 4 August, 2006 at 01:35 hrsbecause it looks terrible and nonsensical...
maybe it's not how dumb computers are... but how dumb ppl making and programming softwares are. hmm. afterall, we, humans invented computers!
crap. =CS
