Don't Use Microsoft Word To Edit Your Posts
Every technical problem we have with this blog has to do a Microsoft product. They suck, they always implement proprietary components in their software, rather than just following the existing, agreed upon standards. Standards hurt their monopoly. If you can't get off Windows, for God's at least use Firefox as your browser.
Anyway Microsoft Word inserts characters in the text of your posts which break our RSS feed, so please stop using it.
I know one reason people use Word is for the spell checker. Firefox version 2 release candidate 2 (the final release version of Firefox ver.2 should be out by the end of the month) has an inline spell checker, so you can spell check your posts even if you're using the blogger post window for entering your text. Works just like Word, and you don't have to support an evil, non-standards compliant, monopoly.
Try it.
Meanwhile, I am leaving for a business trip and don't have time to fix the problem, so the feed will be down for a few days.
