Click on someone's name to send them a PM.  Note the result.

It's a pretty sad day when the error page for a coding error is broken too.

I think there's lots of other stuff broken the same way across the site...

Well, I don't think they're incompetant, nor are their IT people sitting around all day playing "War Quest" and "World of Tanks."  I think they're outsourcing their IT and not getting their money's worth, not by a long shot. 

If I was a high-up Kalmbach employee I'd be asking some serious questions.  If we're having trouble I wonder what they're going through?

I'm going to be 100% honest. 

I don't believe that the problem is that they are incompetent.

I just think that they have their priorities out of order.

I didn't realize that the search function was so bad as it is.

I just ran a few real searches and came back with squat, so I ran a search that I knew should produce results, and still got squat  take a gander:

Hopefully they will devote a little effort to fixing this, as the search function in the  condition it is in now, is useless.

Problem with Kalmbach IT - If they fix this, what else will they break?

And the weather! For cryin' out loud, can't someone do something about the weather?

You're one of the 18 people that live in South Dakota.  You made your choice.

I think there's probably more than 18. I've seen unfamiliar tracks in the snow. And In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees, and the voices of those who standing looking. It makes me wonder.

Don't be alarmed at the bustle in your hedgerow, it's just us Canadians.  We're doing some spring cleaning (getting to it early this time) for the May Queen.

Weather...

Birds...

Yardbirds...

Manhattan Transfer...

Bird would cook, Max would look... where?

Miles came through, 'Trane came too - there:

Basie blew, Blakey too - where?

Cannonball played that hall - there:

There may never be nothin' such as that, No Mo'! No Mo!

Wouldn't it be great to have the two of them together?

Sam, it's 28 here, with sunshine and lots of snow on the roof that is outside, below my third floor window.

Of course, I have very few places to go now--and someone else takes care of the driving.

I'm not sure whether we can do anything about the weather, whether or not we want to; we'll just have to weather the weather.

"Coming Events" under the "Resources" heading is non-functional as well.

Annoying.

It has also been a week since threads that I have been receiving in my email have come to my email. This situation developed a few weeks ago and was restarted soon after it arose.

On the right side of the discussion area of the forum is 'Search the Community' with a box for one to insert a word or string of words to highlight threads that contain the term that has been searched.

It is not working today 11/29/19 and hasn't been for several days.

IT strikes again.
