it's bad to reply to one's own post, yes? sorry! Anyway, I think that a _very_ likely scenario is something like this: i am reading a tip which i found; i notice that either something is wrong or incomplete, or a better way of doing something, or a duplicate. I want to add a quick note. Ugh. I need to log in, get account if I don't have one, etc, etc. I just won't do it. It seems that a lot of this type of activity is very "right now", as opposed to deliberate tip editing. This type of activity would be seriously hindered. -d
