Having started this thread 3 or so weeks ago i must say I haven't warmed to the new format - certainly not designed for those who flit between topics nor prefer tight written threads rather that slabs of empty nothings - I don't stay logged in - a default setting as this browser is used for more possibly malevolent sites than this oasis of genteel calm which however seems to have lost much of its previous busyness - thus can't immediately see what is new and finding out is I find tedious.

Erm...I used the quote button at the bottom of the comment box. Why do I have one but you and Petrushka not? Looking at it again there is only the choice of quote or flag as actions though.
