Anyone know if it's possible to subscribe to the board as an RSS feed? (In the interest of full disclosure, I can't figure out how to subscribe to any RSS feed) Just in case one felt one needed even *more* distraction.

I don't think an RSS feed is available. one of the deficiences of this board software is the in-ability to subscribe to threads.
there are some great freeware RSS readers out there, though as you say, it's just one more distraction!

Dear IP: I looked at their home site, and no limitations
were mentioned. I don't plan to subscribe, I've got plenty
to keep me busy.

here's a couple of urls:
http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss
http://www.webreference.com/authoring/languages/xml/rss/intro/
I like this line from the second source:
Think of it as a distributable "What's New" for your site.

Thank you for your helpful comment, TEd. I hope you and Father Steve are happy together.
