Hi

The BBC website has an interesting video up about the Mallard and her sisters, Pacifics that set the record speed for steam locomotives of 126mph in 1939 - which still stands today. Very streamlined! Nicely done piece on it.

Since I frequently log on and check to see what has been posted in the forum, but I only have a few minutes to read, I find that I sometimes miss some nice things.  Sometimes I'll see that there's a long and involved post which I'd like to devote more time to, other times there's something which I really want to respond to when I have the time.

A suggestion:

When we open a topic, It would be nice to be able to sort the posts in the topic by newest or by oldest. The posts in a topic seem to default to oldest, so to see the newer posts in the topic you  have to go to the end and then navigate backwards.

Thanks,

Some time ago, I recall a discussion about wanting the magazine on apple's outlets--but apple won't allow free media on their reader.  So, the discussion started talking about if there should be a small charge for the magazine so it could be there.  Thankfully, MRH didn't kowtow to apple's trying to tell them how to distribute this excellent magazine.

But--perhaps you could create an apple version, costing a dollar.  It's exactly the same, except that it says apple version.
