Cool! Thanks, Dave and Jon. If I find another, how about if I Tree-Mail you directly, Jon?

Say (cough cough) if you ever run out of things to do (cough cough) here's a request:

Could you track each member's visits to the NGA Archive? It would be handy if there was an automatic "bookmarK" that assumed you were going the archive page by page, and each time you return to the archive, come back to the point where you left off reading.

A fancier version would be to show a checkbox, or different color title on each article that the member had opened and presumably read.

But it has less value for someone who just searches the Archive for articles on specific topics.

I see that those NGA articles don't have a "Comments and discussion:" section.
Is that "by design", or "haven't gotten around to adding that yet"?

I sometimes had the feeling that some articles might be more than a few years old, not that that's necessarily a bad thing. But perhaps some "conventional wisdom" articles would spark a little debate if there was a section for responding to each article. (On the other hand, multiple opinions expressed as chatty threads would dilute the simple, one-way how-to advice in some articles.)
