Now I'm beginning to get concerned as to whether the URL itself self- ratifies, and whether that ratifies the content visible via it at the time. G. is right in that only the parts of the message that are actually sent to a public forum can self-ratify. So if a URL is purporting to be a report... (Of course, it doesn't matter for a Rulekeepor report as that rightfully doesn't self-ratify anyway. But it could be a problem in other cases.) -- ais523
