I just made a post which the forum software mangled. I wrote (spelling out): left-parenthesis t m right-parenthesis. The forum software changed this. I do not like having what I write buggered up by crappy software, so is there any chance you could switch this particular piece of stupidity off?

In this case it didn't matter too much, but I would like to be free to write using conventional expressions, which includes all sorts of things the peanut-brain authors of this rubbish just forgot to think of. If I write a mathematical or pseudomathematical expression e=mc^2, whatever, I don't really want it messed up.

Thank you.
