I could always make a Cheeky Kid Edition of the most ignored... This one was a hit: #reply-11481977 10,987 members had you peoplemarked on that one.

Bryan, Congratulations for a job well done. Real time quotes. I think you got another one that will raise no complaints. Yipee. Now could you please program a way to serve me a Diet Coke and I will never have to leave SI. TIA ~Sarkie

I think it would be useful to allow members to see how many people have them bookmarked as well as how many have them ignored. Because of the varying reasons for using ignore, I'm not sure how valuable the data would be, but I for one would like to know. I'd also like to ask you to reconsider upping the limit on the 10-at-a-time feature. It 's much better than one at a time, but I still use BrowseMaster because I can read hundreds at a time. Some threads I follow are very busy, and I don't always get on every day. It is a joy to just GET ALL REMAINING and simply keep pressing the pagedown key to move through them all.

Dear Mr. Burdick: My analytical mind has been working hard on this one. Since I created the cyber Smooch on SI, over a year ago, I believe the calming effect on people, exchanging smooches, has reduced the workload on the SI Admin's. My analysis has reviled that in fact I may have saved Go2Net from hiring another 2 or 3 Admin's to police the threads. After calculating the wages and stock options that 2 or 3 extra Admin's would have received, it is my opinion that it would be a kind and just act on Go2Net's part to compensate me for my hard work in this area. Your prompt reply regarding this matter would be greatly appreciated. Regards Cheeky Kid
