I think you should open aonther section for sawdust. That way questions and comments about the sawdust session can all be placed here. Easy to find and maybe reduce repeat questions.

I agree. While I haven't been a dedicated viewer (yet). It would be nice to help collect all discussion in one area.

I'll close by simply asking two questions:
  1. What is the purpose of the SS Forum?
  2. If the users can't easily find the information they need or are looking for, then what good is the forum?
yeah i m with u ...

Would it be possible to add a button at the end of a page of posts that would bring us back to the top of the page. I have seen this on another forum and thought that would be useful here instead of wheeling us up with the mouse.
Or else it could be "New Posts" at the bottom of the pages.
Just asking.
Thanks for the great forum.

Holding down 'Ctrl' and pressing the 'Home' key takes you back to the top of the current page on most (all?) browsers.

Hi,

Don't know if this might work for you or not but on firefox hitting the [Home] key takes you to the top of the page. If you have a mouse that can be programed then you might well have a solution with that.
