Polimom, don't worry about it. You can start recharging on Nov. 5th. Right now we're all a little strung out . We've had months of overload that's hard to take for even we hardened politholics.

Lynx, I feel dopey. Seriously. My humor meter needs recharged badly…

Thanks, mom, for putting some objective evidence up that proves to our “centrist” authors that they apparently view themselves through rather heavily blue-tinted glasses.

I can only hope this causes them to pause when they think Josh Marshal, Andrew Sullivan or Marc Ambinder somehow offer support for a moderate point of view.

So I see I'm not the only one with refresh issues. The really weird thing is that I have no issue on my PC, but on my iPod Touch I always get a page that's 1 or 2 days old. It's annoying, especially because I like to load pages before leaving home and read them on the subway.

Polimom, I detect a heaping pile of irony in pacatrue's comment.

LOL!!!! Okay — my bad! (didn't seem to fit you anyway, which is what prompted the reply)

Sorry, polimom, failed sarcasm. I was attempting to ridicule people who only wish to read sites they already agree with by being snarky. I'm a member of Red State myself, just to hear things I don't like (though I haven't gone by in a couple weeks).

“Sometimes I end up on sites I don't agree with. I hate that. “

Paca — I sometimes spend whole days reading sites I don't agree with. May I ask why you don't like to do that?

Going back to the post, I am glad that they colored everything. Sometimes I end up on sites I don't agree with. I hate that.

Hi T-Steel, I sent this issue in several days ago through the Contact Us feature, thinking that went to you. Did you never receive those messages?

YIKES! There was definitely a problem. I found it and fixed it. Unfortunately it's going to take about 3 – 4 hours for the change to do through the 'Net. So http://www.themoderatevoice.com will probably appear broken until then. But themoderatevoice.com will work.

Speaking of Greasemonkey, I love it. That's all!

HMMMM!!!! Interesting. Methinks it's something with TMV's site cache. I will check it out. Thanks for noticing mlhradio!

Yes! I've been having that problem also! I thought it was something with my cache…

T-Steel?

Speaking of the TMV website, I noticed something very...peculiar about The Moderate Voice starting a week or two ago. Maybe it's my browser (firefox), or something else, or maybe it's just me.

I would go to www.themoderatevoice.com , and notice that sometimes the site would not appear to be updated for one or two days at a time. Yet I would go over to memeorandum and it would reference newer TMV articles that didn't show up on the home page. Hmmmm.

At one point last week, I clicked on the "Home" link on the left-hand side of the page, and it brought up the new, correct, updated TMV website. The difference? That link would go to themoderatevoice.com -- SANS the www at the beginning.

So it appears there is some strange disconnect going on between www.themoderatevoice.com and themoderatevoice.com - where the former is only updated/refreshed infrequently. And this seemed to start happening in the past couple of weeks.
