Sorry if this has been asked alrady - but what is that symbol (little red square with some curved white lines on it) that is next to the number of questions under the most recent tab? Thanks

What's one of them when it's at home?

Click it, and all will become crystal :-)

According to dot, they are capable of following you around and even anticpating your movements............I aint touching tem!

OK - so what's the point of it, it didn't used to be there (I don't remember it anyway)?

[stewey]

I wonder if they can fix spelling mistakes:)

Not sure I want to feed it - it's all a bit Big Brother

If you click on the symbol, it takes you to a parallel universe where B00 is never grumpy. It's scary ;-p

I have clicked on it - however your definition of 'crystal' differs somewhat from mine.

In a previous thread dot said that there would be one of them waiting for me at the bar when I get there in about 30 minutes.............Wonder what they look like: cheers!
