She’s 51? Wow…lots of mileage left on that warranty. 
It is legal to excerpt a few lines:
A San Francisco man, accused of forcing a flight to divert because he was high on medical marijuana, picked the wrong flight attendant to freak out on.
51-year-old Lorin Gorman of Chula Vista is a fourth-degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do. Those skills may have averted a serious situation in the air.
Yeah I know, but I hate getting part of the story in one place and then still having to visit another site to finish reading it.
It’s why I either give the link or the whole story. If it’s a press release it’s usually the whole thing I quote.
Several news web sites I visit regularly post the first paragraph or two. I like it because if the first paragraph or so grabs my attention I’ll know I want to read the rest of the story.
How come that works for you David? Everytime I try and quote more than a sentence or two, I always get this annoying debug error and wind up just posting the link.
It all depends on the original article. If there are non-keyboard characters in the article then you need to do some editing. In the case of the article above there weren’t any non-keyboard characters.
Examples of non-keyboard characters:
quotation marks that don’t look like ’ or "
the cents symbol
long dashes
There’s two methods to get rid of the debug error:
Method 1
Go through the article and replace all long dashes with the dash on your keyboard. Replace all curly quotation marks (both single and double) with the quotation mark shown on your keyboard. Replace any accented letters with the regular letter on your keyboard. Check for other symbols such as the cents sign.
Click submit. If you get the error message press the back key for your browser and go through the article again.
Wash, rinse, repeat.
Method 2
Copy-and-paste your text into a blank word processor file (I’m using Word. The following steps may be different in your word processor)
File, save as
select MS Dos. You’ will probably get a message saying the text mark in red will not save correctly
Close the file you just saved and open again. Make any changes necessary
Copy-and-paste into your posting.
Ugghh - that’s too much work. I’ve learned that if I get the error, my text isn’t lost and can be retrieved with a back browser, so some times I’ll notice the bug and correct it. Rather than importing it into something, revising the text and re-posting, I think I’ll just continue to post links when I get those errors. It gives due credit to author and publisher, allows the reader to form their own opinion on the article as a whole and gets the site traffic up (if it’s a site deserving of some traffic). Thanks for solving that riddle though - I’ve wondered about that for some time.
good read
