I made a small batch of fermented pickles, pretty much like dozens of
others in the past but something went seriously wrong.
I started it about two weeks ago and tasted one after a week and it was
fine and about what I would expect after a week.
Last night I cut one and it was just a hollow tube. What seeds and
pulp left was just a thin layer on the inside of the shell. I check a
few more and they were all the same and then noted that they were all
floating.
My process is the same as my sauer kraut recipe
http://schmidling.com/kraut.htm
in which I just substitute pickles for cabbage. I have never had
anything but wonderful pickles doing this until now.
Any ideas?

p.s. this is a test of my isp news server. I am also posting it from
Google and would like to hear from anyone who only sees the google
version which this copy is.
