Prometheus 6   

Do not make the mistake of thinking that because my conclusion is the same as another person's that my reasoning is the same

Open Source (and in particular, phpMyAdmin) rocks!

Mysterious system outages yesterday left my server temporarily ina time warp; specifically, the system date was 9/10/2004. I posted stuff and changed the date, and some folks may have caught me before I caught it, but that's okay.

What wasn't okay is that comments posted with that date as well. Which didn't bother me until today, when I realized it screwed my Live Comment Threads box.

Enter Google, and from there phpMyAdmin. Schweet. Me and SQL get along pretty well. A quick update statement and a quick rebuild of the index page and VIOLA!

I still don't care about the individual pages. If someone adds a comment, they'll rebuild and if not, then who cares?

I deleted phpMyAdmin thought. All that power is tempting and I could screw things royally.
