Do you mean this french woman? If so, the answer is yes.

I think I have seen 2 weeks after my last post. That's the only time I notice it. I'll post and keep reading the site about every day and then 2 weeks later something looks a bit different. I realize its the little reminder note and put it out of my mind until the next time.

"Check"

"Check LURK flag set to OFF"
