    Well, as usual, I'm late to the party. Maybe I can convince you guys to have a contest to choose the car with the worst body roll :grin: http://www.grassrootsmotorsports.com/reader-rides/281/

    No promises, but I'm sure we'll find more stuff that needs to go to a new home in the near future.

    AutoXR, either click on David's avatar and then the "send private message" link at his profile. Or follow the "Contact" link at the bottom of the pages.

    And those packages won't go out until Monday, so no huge rush. Right now they're safely sitting in the back of the Subaru.

    David, do I get swag for having the longest, most pimptacular RR profile?

    Baxter, the new "markdown" stuff is cool, but sometimes buggy. For instance, the preview screen doesn't show everything correctly sometimes. I also had the darndest time getting the lists to work, had to just code them in HTML manually.

    Thanks. I'll ship the stuff on Monday. And AutoXR, I got your address.

    Dan, I haven't figured out how to get the preview to show markdown. Haven't seen where anyone else has reliably managed it, either. But I'm keeping my eyes open.

    Lists are really easy: Just put a bullet of some kind, typically a dash or *, then a space, then the thing you want. Only trick is the two spaces at the end to trigger a line break, which is kinda goofy.

    • Item 1
    • Item 2
    • Item 3

    It works for numbered lists, too. Just put 1. and then the item:

    1. Item 1
    2. Item 2
    3. Item 3

    Although really, I thought yours was kind of clever, forcing it into the pre/code mode.
