I did a smartsearch for NightShadow, and it listed her poem Friends as being created by someone who left a comment for her. Is there something that can be done to correct this? The poem itself lists the correct information, but not the search page...it gives credit to Tatia Gertman (sp?).

You did a search for the term NightShadow, not the author. And Titia used that term in her reply, therefore she came up in the results. You should also notice a little "r" next to Titia's name, indicating it is a reply rather than an originating post.

Actually, I did do the search by author. That is why I have my question

LOL - When you perform a search, it saves your last few so you can access them with the drop-down under Terms and not have to retype. In this case, that feature allowed me to look at your previous search for NightShadow on the hard disk and see you had entered NightShadow in the Terms box. I wasn't just guessing, you see.

They say "To err is human...." but boy did I mess this one up
*smiles*
I think I'll retrace my steps from now on to make sure my err isn't too noticable

hahahahaha
Thanks all!
