Whoa, thank you, Jo for going to all that trouble!
Two things: it might be helpful to point out that the things (menu?) in the dark pink bar at the very top of the page apply to AWAD, not AWADtalk. It took me ages to realize that clicking Search up there would not let me search the bulletin board. (Well, dang it, I didn't use Search very often...)

Second--why do you right-click on a post (it has never, ever occurred to me to do that), and go to properties?
How does that help in copying, please? I just highlight what I want, then go up to edit and click copy. Is your way faster somehow? (I'm afraid, in my ignorance, to try.)
