To stay on topic, I too, would like the website to function better. I have no trouble on other website, just this one. So I think it is OOTP's problem to fix.

Having stayed on topic, I now digress a little bit as I often do.

I learned a lot this morning on this website, so I will share it with all of you.
When looked up this Socrates' quote this morning, I also found other quotes by Socrates and was enlightened.

10 Quotes from Socrates:

Be as you wish to seem
Beware the barreness of a busy life.
The greatest way to live with honor in this world is to be what we pretend to be.
True knowledge exists in knowing that you know nothing.
The unexamined life is not worth living.
I know that I am intelligent, because that I know nothing.
To know, is to know that you know nothing. That is the meaning of true knowledge.
By all means, marry. If you get a good wife, you'll become happy; if you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.
I am the wisest man alive, for I know one thing, and that is that I know nothing.
I am the wisest man alive, for I know one thing and that is I know nothing.

I will now gracefully close this topic digression -- so I don't get a warning -- with the wisest words ever spoken by the wisest man that ever lived - Solomon.

"Respect for God is the beginning of wisdom".

'nuff said.
