The pushpins would have to be able to change color as a person's post count increased, so the thing would have to be wired to the 'Net and updated real time.

Google groups can do that.

no. look at it another way. You've crossed the line into "voluntary land". everything you do beyond this point is something you want to do, or you won't do it. You have entered the realm of "eff you" money. Boss tells you to work late and do more with less and you don't want to? "eff you, i'm going home." here's the great part, very little will push you to that point of frustration now because you are doing things you want to do, not things you have to do just to buy groceries.
that discovery is why so many financially secure baby boomers are continuing to work rather than spend the rest of their lives on the golf course.

forget the finish line, you just crossed the beautiful starting line.

I think it would get a lot more action if the color of the pushpins related to the Dwellars blood alcohol level.

Pushpin icons do allow more flexibility. Good idea.

Could an attachment be added to the format on the cellar somewhere that would measure BAC. Maybe a breathalyzer of some kind?

Should it just monitor the alcohol level or possibly the presence of drugs as well.

And if both, would it monitor or screen for "illegal" drugs or something that might make a dwellar post something dumb that is an over the counter drug but with the warning, "do not operate heavy machinery or post on the Cellar"?

I'm sure Adm Pointdexter already built some system like this. Why reinvent the wheel? UT should just arrange to tap into the feed over at the NSA. Easy peasy.

Don't you think it's hypocrisy
to criticise other's poetry?
It may look like squabbling, taking the piss
But I'm gonna ask y'all to consider this:
sky and lj are painting pictures
with their real-time intenet bitches
Who are we to judge that stuff
They joined in, ain't that enough?
Not all poetry scans and rhymes
Not all words relate pretty times
this is the poetry of the cellar
No fucking wonder we're all going to hell here
