Dark defender respec bug?

For all the City of Heroes folks, I’ve got an odd problem here that I want to show.  I haven’t filed a bug report on it yet, but plan on it, I think.  While using a respec for my Dark/Dark defender, I selected Twilight Grasp for my first power.  After selecting all my powers, I went to the slotting screen.  To my amazement, Twilight Grasp isn’t there.  Here is the screenshot of me after selecting all my powers:

And here is the screenshot immediately after hitting next:

I didn’t even notice the missing power until I finished slotting and putting IOs in everywhere only to see I had 2 Doctored Wounds IOs left over and no healing power in which to place them.  Have any other CoH players seen this problem?

Spending pretend money

This one is just for my City of Heroes cohorts. Recently in the forums, there has been talk in one thread about intentional excessive overbuys for cheap, common salvage. Rather than put all my benevolence in one spot, I spread mine out across 2 salvage types, spending just over 1.5 million influence. Screenies or it didn’t happen:

And selling them:

Would love to hear back from anyone who got a little bit of extra influence from this.

DS Pinball

I loves me some good pinball games.  Devil’s Crush on my TG-16 is one of my favorite console games ever.  So I’m cautiously optimistic that I’ll get my fill of great pinball on my Nintendo DS this summer when this is available:
