Refresh after "Mark Forums Read?"
On the old board when I clicked on "Mark Forums Read" the home page screen would reappear with the forum indicators returned to the unread state. Now on this new board, the indicators don't automatically vanish, I have to refresh the page before the indicators go to unread. Is there some w...

Re: Phonographs in Movies...
In Perry Mason Episode #188: The Case of the Bigamous Spouse, a VV-IX or XI (table-top model) appears in the funeral parlor scene, "playing" a recording of what sounds like a Bach chorale prelude (suitably quiet and soothing, although no ceremony is in progress). At one point, an actor rea...
