Wow, can't you disable that in your browser.  I would tolerate that for 
about a half-second!  Is Chromium the same thing as Chrome?  It must be 
different.  But are they related?

Oh!  Doesn't django much have a find/replace?  I don't see it.  But if there 
is, you could search for  &nbsp, and search again for space  , and 
  space, and replace with the correct thing.

Oh!!  You could take the html (souce) out to a text editor, and do it there. 
Then paste back in.  When I first started working with django, that was my 
workflow.  Because in the Very beginning, the source wasn't even formatted. 
The html just wrapped and wrapped.  So I pasted into a text editor to get 
some minimum formatting.

I still don't think it formats.  But at least it doesn't wrap anymore.  But 
if you do that, be sure to back up the page first.  Just in case :-) 
They're all outdated now, but for a while, I had 8 or 10 pages backed up 
locally.  I don't have the whole website, like Maren does (because I don't 
have any need or skills for it).  But I had a bunch of pages.

Why does the dashes bother you?  Because people use them too much?  In 
personal writing, I use them a lot.  But since it's not official, I guess it 
doesn't matter.  I think it's ok to use once in a while on the website.  I 
wouldn't use more than twice on the same page.  But only if I couldn't think 
of any other way.  Mostly I would only use once or not at all.

Yeah, in forums, people almost always call me "man" or refer to with "he". 
Even on the mailing list once or twice. I used to have a Celtic knot or 
endless knot for my forum avatar.  But I changed it to a flower, to try and 
appear more feminine.  It didn't help at all!  Maybe a sunflower is too 
masculine?  Maybe I need a more delicate flower?  What's a delicate flower? 
Rose?  Poppies are pretty delicate....maybe dahlia?  Dahlia would be a good 
username!  But I'm rambling....

I'm not sure if that asterisk in front of her name means leader, or if it's 
just different username or account.  Maybe it is.  All the other teams 
either have only 1 person with asterisk, or none.  I'd say that's a good 
guess :-)

All best,
brynn
