Thanks!  Hmmm, don't know why I bounced, my inbox isn't full, and I
received one from Barnes and Noble this morning...

Based on your answer to Kelly, I think I've been accepting a few too
many posts -- so I can be a little quicker with the "Nothing new"
category, eh?  This suggests a second stage to the project (why do I
hear screaming?) -- after all the coding is done, combing through the
categories to cull them even further.  After all, we're bound to get
thousands of, say, "Harry Potter" posts, but how are you *really*
going to know what to keep until you can see them all together? 
Especially since each of us has no idea what the others have coded up?  

On the acronym categories:  while their presence does make scrolling
more tedious, won't it be easier to decide which to remove in
hindsight?  Or do you actually know already which ones only have one
or two posts?  If you already know which ones to get rid of, I think
I'd vote for doing so now because they certainly slow me down,
especially scrolling through the character names.  All those extra
seconds will add up over thousands of posts.

Anne
