            That would be nice to know. Some of the quotes are so long I don't get enough time to finish reading them.......

            • Yeah, whoever tested that feature was either the fastest reader in the world or completely illiterate.

                • The pause button is nonfunctional with all of the browsers I have tried it in.
                  Also, if you are quick, you can highlight and copy it before it disappears and paste it somewhere to read at your leisure.

                  Zipped fortune database IW linked me to. I am glad he was not forced to remove it, as there still seem to be a lot of people who want it.

                  • Opera lets you go back to the quote without that annoying "page expired" message IE seems so fond of half the time. I have learnt, though, that the long ones just aren't worth my time reading. They are neither funny nor intersting.
                    I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

                      Okay...I didn't know that. I have never actuallu clicked it before :9

                      Seems to be a porblem Mark could work on, if he wasn't busy protecting Grecce from the forces of evil.

                        Yes, Opera is always the answer. However, I concur I almost never bother with reading the quotes either.

                          I use IE, and I don't get the "page expired" message...
                          This space is empty... or is it?

                            • I've used pause before, and it works.

                              You just have to try a few times.

                              • I pretend I'm on an elevator and I press the button a bunch of times in rapid succession, like that makes the elevator hurry up. Seems to work for pausing the screen too.
