 * This is weird. I’ve been accepting comments for years, but this morning when 
   I approved one on my blog, I got the following message:
 * WordPress database error: [Table ‘familywe_fww.wp3_post2cat’ doesn’t exist]
    
   SELECT cat_ID AS ID, MAX(post_modified) AS last_mod FROM `wp3_posts` p LEFT JOIN`
   wp3_post2cat` pc ON p.ID = pc.post_id LEFT JOIN `wp3_categories` c ON pc.category_id
   = c.cat_ID WHERE post_status = ‘publish’ GROUP BY cat_ID 1
 * Just before approving this one, I approved another one just fine.
 * Does anyone have ideas as to what’s at play here?
