...and why does b followed by ) always have to become B) ? That makes it difficult to create alphabetical lists.

That explanation was almost as

a) informative,
B) insightful and
c) helpful

as it was obvious.

My ladylove told me that using control z should turn it back into B), but I haven't figured out when/ how to do it. I guess I'll just have to
a ) give up, or
b ) include the extra space, like this.

You have one more than me (the very first one doesn't show)!...
Edit: oops, sorry! Your first and last ones are the same actually. Which means we're equal as to how few smileys we can get.

From what I gather problems with the display of founts and characters are often due to some glitch in the browser cache.
