So that's my dream. That and some stuff about cigars and a tunnel.

Our wings are not tired.

Hmmm, I always open to my message center so I see the thread slugs regularly enough. Others may have a different habit.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

ita: Yes. I'm a "read New" kind of guy, so it'd be nice to always have that info at my fingertips.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Huh. Weird. Just the slug, not the previously-objected-to first page info, huh?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I'd rather see the first page info, since that's where the thread rules reside. Perhaps if we used a smaller font than the current first page font it wouldn't be quite so objectionable.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Then we need to revise all the first page info. To make it shorter, and to make sure the rules are there. Because for Boxed Set, it was the slug that answered Emily's question, not the first page info.

I'd like to be able to see the slug and the first page info on each page, though smaller, especially on threads like F2F, where there's particularly important information on the first page.

There shouldn't be anything in the slug that's not in the header.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Although we could certainly try to be less witty and more informative in the header.

I was confused. I'm just going to go around saying, 'What ita said."

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

How long has the stompy-only "maintain" link been there at the top? Sweet!
