I've incorporated a list of recent posts in the forum into the rest of the website. In theory, people will come to a story, see a list of the stories, and come join our community.

Here's a typical story:
http://www.universetoday.com/am/publish/st...ts_planets.html

See the little sidebar over to the right of the story? That's what I added.

Any questions, comments, concerns or suggestions?

I love this newsletter & I can´t wait for it to arrive eveyday! I enjoy this forum very much & find it of great interest! I spend as much time reading people´s posting as I do reading the news Fraser puts on UT!

It's funny, but because of a downed computer I was off the air for awhile and now, coming back, after just a short period of time, there are new people everywhere.

When you are daily active you don't realize how popular Fraser Cain's UT's Forum has become.

This is a tribute - not only to Fraser in providing the medium, but to everybody for making it a living, vibrant and nice area to talk to other people of similar interests.

Congrats boys! UT is a success!
