Thanks Kathy

THIS is a great idea!

Would there be a way to make that prominent on the home page? It's own little section front and center, decorated kind of splashy so it's The Thing you notice first?

I remember searching for a place to learn, and if I'd come across a site with the Noop stuff posted right on the home page where it can't be missed I would have done a back flip! I think it would be a great draw for noop people.

Great suggestion Barb

I'll get with Travis.

BTW... it was Travis' suggestion to clean up all the stickies so this is just an extention of his idea
