It looks as if T-stones is working. Hope, hope.

"...T-stones is working..." (359)

i donʻt know (or care much) why T-stones works only off and on, but Iʻm assuming that it COULD NOT work on my 558: it has two apostrophes in it!

I learned long ago that, according to "Search" nobody in LT owns a book by Sean OCasey,* if listed as an author! But titles by him do show up.

*If the name appears in blue, itʻs because I left out the apostrophe.

Did you mean 559? T-stones hasn't worked at all since Feb. 1 until that post, maybe because of the problem LT had. (?) It appeared to be working, but I didn't know for sure until I submitted the post. I wonder why it won't work with apostrophes. Oh, well.

On 561:

Yes, I meant 559, not 359. I didnʻt realize until now that 559 was the first "Touchstoned" post (since
544?)

Do you agree with what I said (560) that "Search" canʻt handle apostrophes? Or am I doing something wrong or omitting something?
