Draft postage

All right, so let's pretend I'm offended by the mandatory word verification blogger's automated brain imposed on me and instead of posting directly with "Publish Post," I pull a fast one with "Save As Draft." After the afore(below)mentioned 24 hour of non-posting expires,
  1. will the {botruk} verification word of the moment be removed from the post and I'll be allowed to post this very post freely with a mere push of Publish Post just as I should have been able to do from the very beginning?

  2. will blogger be so kind as to post with the date at which the post was last Saved-As-Draft or will it throw off my whole cycle and post it when it is Publish-Posted? I suspect it will do the honorable thing, as by default it is cleverly pre-wired to note the START time of the post, i.e. the time you start writing it, not the time of either actual or draft posting.
But let us test. So, if all goes well, this post should appear as having been posted at 12/8/07 10:21 AM at some time in the future, when the 24 hour anti-spam / please-don't-overload-the-server window has elapsed.

Hahaha. That's funny. It won't even let you DRAFT POST without entering a verification word. A truly unmissable error bar materializes: "ERROR. Enter the letters as they are shown in the image."


Are you kidding me? Not even a draft post? Ok, but at least now it is asking very sweetly with an irresistable {cuoca}. How can anyone NOT verify that one?
