When I read a post I press the "back" button in my browser (MSIE 3.02) each time I want to go back to the main index. This works fine except when I write a post. In this case I end up in this intermediate hell state where the back button takes me everywhere except the main index, and if by some reason I manage to get back to the main index, it hasn't been updated, and in some cases I could swear that I get a version that's even older than the last one I actually saw. So whenver I write a post I take my "favorites" link to CCC from the "Post added" page, then refresh the index page manually. This never fails. It is not great, but until I hear that Tim is driving a Porsche and Steve is feeding caviar to his cat, I'm going to just live with it. bruce
