This is a most excellent suggestion. First, I - as well as many others - have a difficult time finding the time to dispose of my votes on any given day. But more importantly, most of these nodes definitely deserve our attention. I've used the Tutorials section more times than I can count. Unfortunately, it's usually when I'm in jam and need to learn something quickly. Once my code works, I'm off to the next fire - never really considering the assistance I've just received from the tutorial's author.

Here's a not-so-anonymous ++ for the nudge. Thanks. Now I'm off to pay my thanks to those who have toiled before me.

If things get any worse, I'll have to ask you to stop helping me.
