Sweet Information! This page is an archive and therefore cannot/should not be edited. Please ask a Moderator if you think a change should be made.

This is a list of recommended posts for the week from Sunday, July 6, 2008, to Saturday, July 12, 2008. The point of this list is to give newcomers a quick way to grasp what's going on in the forums, as well as to create a mechanism for feedback on forum contributions.
Ground rules:
- Every week, we'll do some kind of summary post in the forums, to round up the results from these recommendations.
- A nomination and two supporting votes will guarantee a post or thread makes it into the summary. (Those numbers may change.)
- Obviously, no nominating or supporting your own posts.
- Be sure to include:
- A link to the relevant post or thread.
- The name of the forum member who made the post.
- A quote or descriptor to make it clear what the substance of the post or thread was.
- Your own name, and whether you're nominating or supporting.
To nominate a post, simply copy and paste this code:
