Entry Corruption

June 27th, 2008

It appears that some of the stories on this site have been corrupted somehow, specifically “Poison” and “Derelict Station.” There may be others. I’m going to search through them and repair any that have been lost.

Edit: Okay, pretty much everything posted before the the recent backup restoration seems to have been zapped in some way or another. This is going to take a while…

Update: It seems that something in the backup process conflicted with particular items of punctuation in some posts. Vexing, but I’m slowly restoring what was lost. Rather more annoyingly, some comments have been affected. I can’t restore those, which means that they’re sadly lost. Rather more than vexing, that.

Update II: Okay, everything should now be restored to its proper place and wholeness. The problem seems to have been caused by a conflict between the backup utility and some of the punctuation in the entries. Which rather suggests that I need a new backup function. If you spot anything problematic with the entries, let me know and I’ll fix it as soon as I can.
