I feel your pain.....
I've done that once too often. Usually means it's time to go home if you're at work or time to go to bed if you are at home.
Nite Nite. Sleep tight. Don't let the bed bugs bite rvb!

ai yi yi! been there, done that - bummer!
Anything over 2 paragraphs and I've learned (the hard way) to do it in a word processing program and click SAVE every paragraph or so. Been SO glad I did that more than once. Easy to copy/paste from there into the message.
I'm sure it was sheer poetry though! smileys/smile.gif

Of course, you could start in a Word document and paste, but how can you know in advance....
when the inspiration will move you? I sympathise; I've often written what I think are wonderfully inspired posts and then erased them accidentally. Trying to reconstruct them is fruitless and painful.
If you give it a few days' rest, it may all come back to you.

You have only one option left at this point...
open a can of cold pork and beans and contemplate whether to add ketchup or mustard to them..it may not help your creative muse but will certainly remind you to thimk before you act next time!

Been there, done that. On another site, sometimes when I have
my pop up blocker on, it will not only block the post, but erases it! I finally learned to copy it before I click post. Then, I get the form again & paste in the post. Then I hold down the Control button while I click on the post button. Works every time.

This was sent to me today. Good timing.
Why Computers Sometimes Crash!
Dr. Seuss style
If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port, and the bus is interrupted at a very last resort, and the access of the memory makes your floppy disk abort, then the socket packet pocket has an error to report.
If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash, and the double-clicking icon puts your window in the trash, and your data is corrupted cause the index doesn't hash, then your situation's hopeless and your system's gonna crash!
If the label on the cable on the table at your house, says the network is connected to the button on your mouse, but your packets want to tunnel to another protocol, that's repeatedly rejected by the printer down the hall.
And your screen is all distorted by the side effects of gauss, so your icons in the window are as wavy as a souse; then you may as well reboot and go out with a bang, 'cuz sure as I'm a poet, the sucker's gonna hang.
When the copy on your floppy's getting sloppy in the disk, and the macro code instructions are causing unnecessary risk, then you'll have to flash the memory and you'll want to RAM your ROM, and then quickly turn off the computer and be sure to tell your Mom!
Thank you, Bill Gates, for bringing all this into our lives.

Nope, it's from a Mad Magazine cover, circa 1964! nt
