I just had the darndest trouble with newest nodes. I assumed it had been broken for the past three days. What actually happened? I hadn't checked it for a few days before that, and it got too big for nutscrape. Nutscrape would show the big bar, and the links under it... then it would render the rest of the page blank-ly. Not even a chatterbox to complain in. ;)

I tried viewing the source to get the contents of that clear last checked button, but nutscrape crashed rudely every time I tried.

The solution was 'lynx -cookies www.perlmonks.org'. I logged in and cleared the flag. Handy little tool isn't it?
