wwp@yahoogroups.com: Re: Why is someone editing the description text after its been submitted to WWP? texas360dave 2011-Oct-22 23:40:00
I cleared my IE9 browser cache hoping it would clear and correct the "part 2" link.  6:40pm Central Texas Time.

However... I still get 

"Bring VIA Rail Back To Our Community! 

Za one koji ne znaju engleski... "

Will check back in a few days.
