just in case

A thought for anyone writing a detailed piece they would be unhappy to lose if the system fails.

Use a dedicated wordprocessor package and then save the completed work. Then copy the lot and paste it into an open posting page and submit it. If the system goofs up you still have the original so you can repeat the process until you've been successful.

Or use 'Control A', right click the highlighted text and then press 'Control C' before hitting the 'Submit' button. It's quick and dead easy but be careful not to overwrite your copy in memory until the original has been posted.
