A Suggestion...

What's with the tiny text? I'd read it but it's giving me a headache.

Can we narrow the margins on all text so that it is easier to scan back and forth? Sort of the way newspaper columns are, only not quite that narrow.

Hey, can we narrow the text column width so that it's easier to read long winded posts?

Is there anyway that we might all try harder to keep similar discussions under the same topic threads? For instance this morning there are three threads dealing with the 60 Minutes interview with regard to the Massey Coal Company and the susequent government cover-up. There is more than one thread dealing with the abortion issue on the front page at this time. I post elsewhere and the one area that the moderators do monitor and do some clean-up is keeping like discussions under singular threads. There are times when they we warn posters or simply do a little housework and move and combine threads under the same topic.

It makes the board a little easier to deal with and keeps pertinent topics and posts from getting buried.

I agree with you Cricket.

A couple of times I have started a new, similar topic because I want to take the discussion a different direction and felt it would be ineffectal to make the point on an existing thread that already had several talking points.

As for the margins, there should be a setting where the width of the columns can be reduced from the current ACROSS THE WHOLE DARN PAGE to perhaps only 75% across. It makes it much easier to read the text.
