    Hey, Lou. I couldn't figure out why the fonts were different either. It appeared fine in the test box (as I'm sure it did for you). My best guess depends on which word processor you used to write the article.

    I think one way to fix it would be to copy/paste it into a basic word processor like notebook to remove any formatting (consequently, hyperlinks would be removed as well though).

    Hi Lou. I co-host a radio show called "Bears Claws." I am looking for someone who covers the Giants to come on our show August 21st. Would you have an interest? You can either be on live or I can interview you prior to the broadcast, whatever works best for you. Bears/Giants play a preseason game on August 24th and we would talk about that and your expectations for the season. Thanks. My email is atticus1223@yahoo.com and my name is Jeff Heck.

    Thanks Lou, I totally hear ya about habits being hard to break! I still put two spaces after a period, even though that's apparently not the thing anymore... :)

    Hey Lou, to answer your questions:

    1. I've been a Yankees Featured Columnist since 2009 and the Giants since this past February.
    2. B/R has yet to pay me yet, although I have applied for full-time work for the site, which I would love to do.
