    Real quick - does anyone know why the "Highlight Unhighlightable Text" script for CS doesn't seem to work? I installed it like the others that I've installed, and it's the only one that's not working. Still can't highlight those words from CS...and how have they not fixed that yet? What, do they hate fast work? I get really bummed out when I think about how they used to be and how they are now.

    Long story short - a few years ago, CrowdSource (then Midwest Internet) was paying VERY well, by any standards. Doing quality editing, I could make anywhere from $20-100/hr (I have a fast eye for grammar and sentence structure, and I was good at cherry picking the better HITs). Some time after becoming CrowdSource, they started paying less for their HITs and demanding more (as usual). Could still make anywhere from $10-40/hr then. THEN they started eliminating quals that people (me) already had and forcing people to take new, more difficult, more asinine tests. Because of my own laziness (school + laziness = no test), I lost the opportunity to get one of the new writing/editing quals. Now all that's open are the Google HITs.

    Not really a long story short I guess...but I ramble as it is, so it's short for me.

    What really sucks is that I took it for granted - doing an hour or two of work per day and slacking off the rest. The only thing keeping you from making as much as you could was 1) passing the idiotic tests (I actually ended up having to petition to get my qual, and suffice it to say that I am no slouch in the grammar/spelling department), and 2) the amount of work that they actually put up. Getting to the work was the biggest challenge.

    Unfortunately...no. And somehow someone stumbled upon the same name that I thought was so unique. It's a nice site, though.
