Hm. Joined cartalk many moons ago, signed in just now, went to comment on something ($93 oil change by PJ512, because I had received an alert in my email), system wouldn't let me, tells me I need to request sending of an email to confirm email address (huh?), ok WTH, I click send, get email, click on link to verify I'm me, now system is saying I joined today at 5:39pm. Has apparently lost my prior comments and all prior activity. wierd. oy. -P
