Strictly speaking, the 'retransmission' is already possible&#151it's already in your browser. Whether it's retransmitted one post or many posts at a time is not relevant. Besides, retransmitting a zillion "When is earnings?", and "I think your opinion stinks!" posts is not exactly giving away the family jewels.

On the other hand, my concern is that if a feature is offered, multiple users will be using it simultaneously. What's SI's membership now&#151around 100,000? What's the effect of 1000 users downloading 1000 posts all at once? Somebody will invariably want to push the limits, human nature being what it is.
