I recieved this email the other day and I didn’t know what to make of it. It reads:
From: [omitted]@aol.com
To:rick@bentcorner.com
Date: Sun, Dec 6, 2009 at 2:42 PM
Subject: Bent CornerRick
I used to enjoy reading Bent Corner and since you changed it I went along and subscribed the articles to Yahoo and then I found I couldn’t read the comments, then I subscribed to the comments then I found I still couldn’t read the articles without subscribing to the email…so I just removed ALL OF IT.
Thanks but no thanks
I’m inferring from this that he is referring to the feed for this blog. I’ve had Feedburner doing the syndication since forever. I haven’t changed it. Anyone know what this person is talking about?

/ December 8, 2009@Lee B: OMG! I had no idea. I just fired up IE8 on the laptop and sure enough, it’s not loading correctly. Thanks!

Rick
/ December 8, 2009@Ryan: I am such an idiot. I was doing some customizing to my blog’s theme and I guess I did something that IE didn’t like. I never use IE, so….
In retrospect, I guess I should make sure my blog can be read by 44.5% of it’s visitors.

(I can’t stand it when people say “thanks but no thanks.” It’s a nonsense turn of phrase…right up there with “the thing is, is…”)
