Description Mark Rowe (bdash) 2008-01-15 01:01:14 PST 
Steps to reproduce:
1. Load the URL.
2. Triple click on "Today I feel like bashing flash."
3. Notice that the "T" of "Today" is not selected, but the "W" from the following paragraph is.
4. Hit copy, then paste into TextEdit.
5. Note that the "T" is omitted, as is the "W" which appeared to be selected.

This occurs for me in Safari 3.0.4 and in TOT.  A similar problem occurs if I click and drag to select the entire article -- the first letter of each paragraph is omitted from the copy.

Potentially relevant portion of the style sheet:

p:first-letter {
	font-size:1.1em;
}
