Sorry for the spam, but one final thought: Let's tag them now so we can find them again. That'll make closing them easier. Anyone who knows the tagging mechanism better than me want to volunteer? I'll hold off on closing any of them for a couple of days so others can chime in... And no, I'm not going to go through _all_ of them at once, but looking over a few a day will clean them up pretty quickly especially if others do too.
