[edit] Your sig

Gaff, please fix your signature. Right now it causes everything after your sig to be in small type. This is presumably unintentional? TIA ---CH (talk) 22:20, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Signature

Sorry, CoolCat informs me that this might not be due to anything you did wrong in writing your sig, since apparently many users with fancy signatures have been experiencing odd font behavior today.---CH (talk) 22:51, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

Seems wiki is using HTML procedures - tags must be nested correctly, don't know why it shows up now? I re-nested your sig above. Vsmith 01:10, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

HTML Tidy is currently disabled on the site which masked the problem AFAIK. RedWolf 03:01, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Bill Clinton article

Hi, as a result of some recent work on other things, I drifted by the Bill Clinton article and noticed your comments on Talk:Bill Clinton. I agree with you about the issue of impeachment, it should be mentioned in the intro, and I wrote accordingly. Kaisershatner 18:14, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Alkhemi and Aladin

Hi, back in October05 you participated in the deletion-discussion about a company called Alkhemi ([1]), which was subsequently deleted with your vote. Now the same deletion question is posed for another article about the man behind Alkhemi, a magician who calls himself Aladin. Despite being a truly bad article (extremely biased, outrages claims are made, and the sources used to back up those claims consist largely out of tiny newspaper snippets that are blown up out of proportion to make the subject sound like the second coming of the christ), the vote is so far flooded with "keep" votes, which might be because of dozens of sockpuppets, so I'd like to invite you to add your vote about this matter to tip the balance. The vote is here. Thank you :-) Peter S. 21:08, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hinduism and polytheism

Hi, Gaff saw your edits on Ishta devata. Hinduism is not polytheistic as many Westerners think. It's common misconception. Please see Hindu views on monotheism. Only Smarta Hinduism allows this flexibility of worshiping a deity as they ultimately believe in an impersonal absolute Brahman. Vaishnavism, on the other hand, is strictly monotheistic.

Thanks, and happy New Year.

[edit] Re: Mushroom POTD

I don't know what type of mushroom it is. They appeared one day in the park beside my building, and were pretty enough to photograph. Thanks for the compliment :) --Eraticus 20:44, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
