I've had to create a new blog from the old one because something is still going on with blogspot. This is just getting more and more aggravating.

Blogspot did not transfer over the contents of the previous information. I didn't have much published in that old one, so it really is no great loss. However, I did bookmark the url and clicked on it. The problem is that I am no longer able to publish onto that blog anymore. The merging failed.
