# Not sure what happened! Strange TeX reaction in comment [duplicate]

I got a strange reaction to my TeX. And I cannot recover from it or delete the comment in the following post

• Based on Mariano's answer I'd say that support might be a better choice of tag than bug. – Martin Sleziak Jun 11 '13 at 6:28
• I have noticed this in the list of related questions: Comments layout break if Math expression is too long. – Martin Sleziak Jun 11 '13 at 8:55
• @MartinSleziak Support may be needed, but if missing a dollar sign from the end of your $\LaTeX$ screws everything up then we have a [bug]! – user1729 Jun 11 '13 at 11:22
• @user1729 If we consider this bug report (as opposed to a request for support), than it seems to me as a duplicate to the question I've posted in my previous comment. (Perhaps it could be closed as an exact duplicate in either case...?) – Martin Sleziak Jun 12 '13 at 7:25
• @MartinSleziak An exact duplicate it may be, but it is an exact duplicate of a thread from 2011...It seems like the bug has been forgotten by MSE...so maybe if this thread had been left open it might have served as a reminder?... – user1729 Jun 12 '13 at 9:17

There was a missing $, which sometimes causes havoc. I have fixed it. • It has certainly caused havoc for me, when I didn't have enough$. – Gerry Myerson Jun 11 '13 at 9:04
