Malcolm - why do the cookies of HoP only expire in 2 years and not at the end of the session.
Personally I dislike the storage of long term cookies on my system.

I logged in (previously deleted all cookies) and HoP requested to install a 2 yr lasting cookie... I accept because I
Malcolm and HoP - but I don't understand why this would be necessary at all... Usually I wouldn't accept 'eternal' cookies and just not use such site unless absolutely necessary...Call me web-paranoid

personally I'd take cookies from HoP - they're likely to be gluten free and better for you than other cookies!
And RC, in order for the Beehive to get organised to a) collect data and b) ceate a plan, there'd have to be a major brain injection - our politicians are no brighter than anyone elses (unless answering 10 questions on Letterman qualifies as "bright")!
But if you want a serious answer to the question, you should send Malcolm an email as he is the programming brains behind the service as I'm sure you already know.

George - I simply don't understand w.h.y that all of a sudden.
Thanks for your answer - I will consider to approach him directly.
