Where is the context of the message you are responding to? I may have had this problem but it would be nice to see what the other message you are replying to said. I can't do anything about the problem I had now because I opted to start over from scratch for more learning. It would be nice to be aware of a potential problem before I get to the point where it might happen again if I did have the same problem the last time.
