There's a bug lurking somewhere in LXer. It sometimes forgets who submitted a story. When it does that, it substitutes "dave" for the username. Dave is trying to find the little devil. |

And if you remember "Dave? Dave's not here man" then we can really date you :D |

How weird, does anyone else smell patchouli? |

While you're here (but Dave's not here, man), have I gone overboard on the number of stories popping out on the Newswire? Neither Dave nor Don have fired missiles at me, yet, at least. |

tuxchick2: Is that something we should be glad not to step in? |

I don't understand any of this, and don't have time for it. At the moment, I've got bigger chitlins to fry: my melons have all gone blind. |

could the dave be a default value set up in the database column definition? then it wouldn't be in any code for a text search to find, but it would appear if a null value was passed into the table. In a test copy of the table define the column as not null with no default. The next time it happens in prod, re-run the situation on the test table and it should blow up where the code is dropping the value. |
