Mr. Kid, You raise an interesting point when you post; "I think we have all asked a lot from these boys. And they delivered!! Now it is time to let them rest." The fast response-to-suggestion time of the brothers Dryer, coupled to the fairly large percentage of this thread's wished for improvements actually seeing the light of day, has been remarkable and, no doubt, leaves some of us quite breathless. The point you make raises the issue of overload, and I believe was intended to remind us that everything has limits and contributors should be aware of the need to moderate our expectations out of respect for the workload of the Dryers. One could argue or assume that the lightning fast implementation of good ideas is an open invitation for us to think up more good ideas that could be implemented just as quickly. There is also the awareness that a flood of good ideas could swamp the capacity for implementation and lead to bad feelings all around. It would be nice to hear from Jeff or Brad about their capacity to absorb input from this thread. Do they want us to just let loose and pour forth our every notion or whim? The quick implementation is one way to tell us to keep the idea flow up, but it would be nice to hear them be more explicit. I would remind us all that no small measure of creative genius is the knowledge of when to stop adding on. Jerard P P.S. The new submit feature is almost exactly as I pictured it in my mind. No more crashes with the "time train" again! Thanks a lot you guys!
