@ Paul Dirks
(sometime you'll have to give a seminar on how to do all the special characters.)
Cut'n'paste works for most ("<", ">" and "&" are notable exceptions), you just have to find (or have handy a text file page of) all the special characters. Then there's this:
See, e.g.: http://htmlhelp.com/faq/html/basics.html
Basically, it's decimal code in the middle of:
&;
or:
&; (if you happen to remember the name better, e.g.:
® for registered trademark: "®"
™ for trademark: "™"
ü for umlauted "u": "ü"
For the specifics, see these pages:
http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/charset/iso160-191.html

Ooops. Need to quote myself....
This:
Basically, it's decimal code in the middle of:
&;
or:
&; (if you happen to remember the name better, e.g.:
Should have been this....
Basically, it's decimal code in the middle of:
&<code>;
or:
&<name>; (if you happen to remember the name better, e.g.:
The ampersand and the angle brackets are done as:
"&" is &
"<" is < ("l"ess "t"han)
">" is > ("g"reater "t"han)

Don't get suckered
When realname and scooter are reduced to scoolyard taunts, as they are today, they've come as close as they're capable of to acknowledging they've lost the argument. Realname in particular today has given up even trying to defend his absurd POV, and instead reverts to his elementary school playground days--those golden days of memeory when he was at his best-- when if he repeated a taunt enough times it made the other kids cry. I'm guessing he had a particular hate even then for Muslims, who may look like innocent children when they're young, but grow up to be the same evil scum their parents are, so he did his best to drive them out of the neighborhood.
Scooter is just the same dittohead he always is. Once in a great while he says something that deserves to be set straight, but today, not so much. Pretending America has done all it needs to in educating its people and that hunger isn't a problem is straight out of FOX Delusion World. Anybody that out of touch is unreachable. All his comments deserve are a sad shake of the head at the fact that even a few people actually believe that horseshit.

Paul Dirks on shooter
So shooter is in agreement...
That the dems were horribly and tragically wrong about the justifications for the Iraq war. He will therefore join us in insisting that our involvment be ended as soon as possible.
I know what you mean. Sometimes shooter's low IQ shines through in ways that leave him ignorant of how foolish he's just made himself look. He complains here about those evil Dems, who in this case are evil because they believed the same things shooter still does! And this is supposed to be a shot at the Dems? If so, shooter falls in same dumbass category, so he's just taken a shot at The Enemy, and hit himself in the foot.
Of course the real story is that shooter's own love of His party leaves him incapable of comprehending that we would hold the Dems who said those stupid things to the same standard we do the Republicans who did. They all deserved to be ridiculed. Shooter would never be capable of ridiculing people in his own party. He assumes we will all recoil when he shows us that Dems were once as stupid as the republicans we all allegedly hate. Of course the difference today is that at least most of the Dems have acknowledged how wrong they were when they said those things, while shooter's boys still cling to those delusional scripts.

@timberman
Not to go all pedantic on you, but if you're going to be handing down correctives, it's Secaucus, not Seacaucus. And nobody writes Kolkata except journalists, Bengali chauvinists, and guilt-ridden Americans.
But if you're ever in Myanmar for a close shave, don't order the crepes Yangon or the Beijing duck. They'll look at you sideways.

To prunes. whoever, those like prunes make us un-prune smile?
I was trying to post at Chris Floyd's and got trapped in the wind string harpsichord? His 'harp' is like a taking what info. was commissioned from the ---1916--- West Virginian commissioners....in a slow time when America moved 'slower.' A people sat post war two on porches, in a slower-pace America...And a time when people sat-hew-haw...O, and said, we got "so much work to do?"
The era in history was when people sat to hear birds sing while they sat safe on front porches. n the eve, the neighbors looked into the trees that had NOT been chain-saw down for a wall-maul. In other words, a Samuel (1915) Barber served his day. A musical orchestra took a theme from the natural birds, and put 'it' to string-instrument.
I accidentally listened to Saint Luke's (a doc) 'speak' of tiny ravens, bluebird chords, a women's voice, a day dream, and the 'ring choir-symphony' of a 'truism,' a dream and lovely mystery, revealed in a sing-song.
Watch out for the so labeled, "neocon." They really are dangerous, murderous, and a the real 'democratic' threat. Plus, ------ THEY want a want a fake iron-ball to da,da,da,da,da,da,da,da,da,da,da,da,...duh! Just Start Some More Trouble!
If a iron-ball could be a single-slink sling-shot, okay (?) but NOW they got a A-or N-bomb.
What a time to remain alive. No mistake, You know it? Murderous times are here again. Yep. That's right! Bad breath, and bad mouth textured, full-baloney...MSM? Yes. Bad bread and horrible leaven too. The ball-LOGO term in baseball, hardball, would say, "rotten livers."
To see and hear the MSM's 'fecal' matter 'drip' vis hired pundits is is a shame? What neo-con odor! Pooh. And poor you who subscribe to neocon pooh. Have we become so ill, we dare ask, "Is there a Lawyer in the House?"
I accidentally listened to some darn good music on the horse-gallop back to the hitching post-Salon. Hay! A horsey will trot back to where they know, and the familiar oats-and grain, grasses have grown.
A Samuel Barber had commissioned a human-orchestra's...it was a 'nice', to listen too kinda' of a flutist. Any instrument can be drowned out by other lyrical-hymn's? A knocking at hard-hearts is stupid, WHY, get sore knock-knuckles from banging at a locked door?
Pooh! And Who is poor Who, extra! And anyway?
It's glee to NOT lie. Unknowns come here to blow our dirty 'socks' off and then, clean, what is it Wezen got 'left?' Bare or beer, or bear feet? Contagious glee! Wow, and if that is NOT dangerous, what is? Contagious. Love.
Never give up. Be honest and real. YOU. A human instrument can be an 'instrumentalist. Yes. Real. And taker-a-easy, too.
That's it's okay to wander off into the woods, allright? Never say, Oh ah, " Oh, , o, me macho sorry." Never bow to a creep. 'Um are bad, insolvable, neocon, and bad fritter-'critters.'
If you'd wish to 'drag-'um-garden-wise, they would kick and resist...No hope?...
....Listen to "Knoxville," (sp), by Samuel Barber. If neocons kick dirt, 'fuss,' and kick-diet-dirt, some day the old term, "repent," may be in common vogue again? If we get into all chewing' Green mint for fresh-breath, and green teeth is NOY frowned-upon, we will be okay? Let's hope.
okay, how do we act melodic? If G.W.B's followers seem 'fecal' acting and betraying logic-- What is the insane neocon people to think?
A silver cloud kept popping into a blue sky today... I wanted to gallop to the homestead, and also stay in the field, and what is a person labeled, 'if they forget, forget, forget, forget...A Alzheimer's Farmer Who Will Not sell-Out?
Drop them 'forgetful attorney's one block-off from the Salon, or the White House, and if they find the way back to the Salon/ Whitehorse, don't love them, unconditionally. Dis-ease.
O, giddy up, where is G.G? Reading the Dock's ____! How does G.G., the kamasami, keep it up? I vote for him, "irregardless."
Okay, he toga took a trip to a dump? Again? Okay. Data's okay-with us...
