Hello Danie (and list)l:

When I use the annotation button on selected text in a gmail tab on firefox3, gmail blanks out.  An org-remember buffer is opened; however the text is not inserted into the buffer.  Is this a general "feature" of org-annotation-helper vis-a-vis Gmail, or something particular to my own setup? 

I do still get the selected text in the remember buffer, all on one line as mentioned elsewhere.  I'm happy with that.

Alan
