I don't use it on this site:P

I only use prefetch when I'm doing research on something, because it's a hell of a lot faster to load pages with wasted clock cycles than to wait, especially if you're doing it on dial up. (I'm not, but I have before.)

Bane is a Modern English word meaning "that which causes ruin or woe", from the Old English bana ("slayer", "murderer"), from the Proto-Germanic *banon, cognate with *banja ("wound").

Seinfeld, anyone? Kenny Banja. (banya)

[SVOboy]

Is there truthfully where his name comes from? Seinfeld is the best.

I can't say for sure, but knowing Jerry and the way he comes up with his material, I wouldn't think to doubt it one bit.

How can you tell who thanked you ?
Someone thanked me, and I have no idea what for. Hmmm.

[NeilBlanchard]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Their name gets listed below your post!

[Cd]

Thanks Neil.
What I should have asked, was how to find which post has the tank you.
Some one thanked me, and I'm not sure which post it was on.
Rather than go through each and every post I have on this site, I just wanted to see if I had missed something obvious for finding it.

[Christ]

No, that was why I suggested the linking ability.

Sorry, Cd, I have yet to see the feature implemented this way, and we're no different (yet.)

Ben, could you maybe write a note to the author of the script asking for an extension that includes that feature, or something similar?

Click on the user's name, click "view user's profile", click the "statistics" tab above the comment box, first box in that view shows one link to an archive of posts that person has given thanks for, and another link for posts they've been thanked for.

Just found this tonight.

Hmm, I had that line in my head while watching District 9 this week. Finally, I know what you were talking about
