Idiocy of the moment: The Kaiser Permanente's "contact member services with questions" web page doesn't let you use question marks in the question field. Duh.

I don't know, I didn't try. I just culled stuff 'til it worked.
It would shock and amaze me that in late 2006 people would be disallowing characters rather than escaping them, but then I guess I've used software...

Update from this morning: I just re-wrote my response to their response without using contractions or the posessive because it also whined when I used apostrophes.
And Rebecca Blood is running into similar issues.
It's 2006 people, how fucking dense do you have to be to be writing crap web apps like this?

Answer: Lowest bid contractor delivering in the shortest amount of time.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
