    I'm not sure if I'm being trolled again or what, but I keep getting those "Alert! You're down -- points!" messages, but I haven't yet received any violation notices. I hadn't thought of the time change thing, and I just removed my fans. (It's me, 'Zilla.)

    Gawd, Yahoo sucks!!

    Also, every time I change pages I rack up points--19 points since first answering this question! And I haven't done anything to get them. LOL

    EDIT: I just tried it again--went to my profile, then clicked on this question again--5 more points!! Too funny!

    I'm just popping in to collect my alimony, or points if there is any confusion. I anticipate losing a few tonight because Darth and 8Track led me astray. I was frightened. They took me to places I have never been. I sure hope I can find my way back.
