I was seeing messages from the Virginia “chat” which were dated October and November, 2008, earlier today.

I just came back on a few minuntes ago and the messages are no longer showing.

I used to have that problem when I lived in Florida. I moved to Missouri, and the problem cleared right up! So you should probably move.

The state announcements don’t bother me, but I would like to limit or eliminate the text of the post when I read the “latest posts” page. Some posts are about a mile long, requiring quite a bit of scrolling.

And move your “Locale Message” block to one of your sidebars. I put mine at the top left where it’s unobtrusive, yet I can keep an eye on it.
