Jim, Looking towards the new website, which is a pleasant change, I did consider that it fails to grab ones attention in a meaningful way. That being to grab...

The shortcut looks the goods. Didn't realize it was possible :) Pretty much does the job other than the each sub thing. If you did implement it, perhaps keep...
