I repeatedly posted a response to Statler in the thread about whether dinosaurs exist, and they keep showing up blank. What gives?

You fucked up at least one (1) quote tag.
Edit your post to have the correct number of starting and ending quote tags.

I vouch on Moros' statement - it did the same to me too and I noticed my first quote tags weren't proper and that fixed things up right quick.
If today you can take a thing like evolution and make it a crime to teach in the public schools, tomorrow you can make it a crime to teach it in the private schools and next year you can make it a crime to teach it to the hustings or in the church. At the next session you may ban books and the newspapers...
Ignorance and fanaticism are ever busy and need feeding. Always feeding and gloating for more. Today it is the public school teachers; tomorrow the private. The next day the preachers and the lecturers, the magazines, the books, the newspapers. After a while, Your Honor, it is the setting of man against man and creed against creed until with flying banners and beating drums we are marching backward to the glorious ages of the sixteenth centry when bigots lighted fagots to burn the men who dared to bring any intelligence and enlightenment and culture to the human mind. ~Clarence Darrow, at the Scopes Monkey Trial, 1925
Politics is supposed to be the second-oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first. ~Ronald Reagan

Of course, for the most part Waldork says nothing worth quoting.

I've had the same problem, are you doing multiple replies in one post?
If you are then copy the lead quote tag with statlers name in it and paste it as your opening quote tag for each new reply( kudos to Kichi for telling me that).
Then you shouldn't have a problem.

Guys, I went back trying to fix Oro's post several times - my mod sticker was still there even but it wasn't "saving" the changes I made - I'll go back once more to see if it gets fixed but it's being an ass

Let me know.
On a side note, every time I see this thread, I think, "The schnauzberries (sp?) taste like shnauzberries." I have no fucking clue why.
