No.

There have been times that JohnRob ‘updated’ the format and it didn’t work.

I recall one time when the main site was used for beta testing, my browser content became so tiny I could hardly read anything.

The concensus from some previous attempts at ‘modernizing’ were: DON’T.

The site works like it works. Leave it alone.

Other sites do join new tech - surely some creative techy conservatives can figure out a way to do it for not much $ and maybe donate some time?

I don’t want a rush Limbaugh like site that looks like his webmaster threw up all over the page.

Just maybe a device friendly form of the classic we love.

My utopian desires:
1. Have the text fit inside the iPhone screen and be able to be made large enough for people to read, and no need to scroll in 4 directions each line you read

2 get rid of the sidebar and just have a real, active, search feature

3. Make the posting format more up to date. If the search feature were functional you wouldn’t have to sit there while missiles are flying and find key words or which category to post under, or find some URL to use when there isn’t any. Gone are the days - or they should be - where everything considered “important” was from a news publication. URL field should be optional.
