Hi Jim, Nikos has been running this "Todays Cryptogram" thread for almost a year now. Its a fun thread, good wake up exercise, and pretty social. Whats the chance of getting a link to these up at the top of the Forum page like:

just so its not limited to the ping list?
Not sure how hard a request that is, but thought I'd ask.
