We seem to have a problem of an additional year turning up in the url's when the posts are opened as independent pages. When the posts are viewed off the home page the extra year does not show up. There is a way of manually fixing each one as we become aware of it but as it affects so many pages I am hoping I can find a more global fix. If you site search for the title's you want to read you'll find the pages that way for now. .-= My last blog-post ..<a href="http://www.mandm.org.nz/2010/01/contra-mundum-confessions-of-an-anti-choice-fanatic.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+mandmblog+%28MandM+Posts%29" rel="nofollow">Contra Mundum: Confessions of an Anti-Choice Fanatic</a> =-.
