My brush with Blogger tech support and why is the sky blue?

Something a little weird happened here a couple of weeks ago. I found that one of the archived files that make up this blog has an HTML file extension. All the other files have ASP extensions. Because of the web server my ISP uses, this causes the files to render differently. HTML files display stuff in the HTTP stream that doesn't get displayed by ASP page (if you want a more detailed description, drop me a comment, below).

Anyway, I found this little "thing" and posted a note to blogger tech support. It fell to Kimmy to help me with this little conundrum. Which she did quickly and cheerfully (from what I could tell in her email). She even tried to explain how I messed up the site.

Sadly, I just didn't get her response. Which led me to send her a follow-up message asking "why?"

It occurs to me that "Why" is an important part of my life. Somewhere along the way, I never let go of those silly little questions like "why is the sky blue?" "why is the grass green?" "why did that little doggie kick that tree?" "why did that beeyatch do me that way?" LOL!

So, how about it? Are you a "Why?" person or are you cool going through life without pestering others with silly little questions like "why is the sky blue?"

Oh, as for my brush with Blogger tech support: two thumbs up. Kimmy was helpful and responsive and so far hasn't minded my pestering. ;-)
