I do not know why I can't seem to post the rest of my trip report.
brh: There's a bug in the forum software. If you are copying a Word document or something similar, the curly quotes (both apostrophes and double-quotes, bullets, and any other odd characters that you can't normally generate from a standard keyboard will cause the text to disappear.
Paste the text into the window, then go through it carefully and change all those odd characters. (Or just post it and leave it blank, and I'll do some background messing around and get it to show up.)
If you try adding a paragraph or two at a time to your above report, use the "Change Post" button to try and see if it works. If it does not, use the browser's back button (2x, I think), clean up the offending characters, and try "Change Post" again.
We're eventually going to upgrade the software with the fix. It was caused by the hosting service upgrading on their end which caused the forum software bug to appear.
