Not everything he asks has an existing solution, though, partly because he 
doesn't actually give us a real problem to begin with. The best I could do, I 
suppose, is link back to other posts I've made -- for instance, when he 
forgets by the weekend a point I made on Wednesday, rather than making the 
point again, I could just link back to the other post.

I'm not sure that's easier, but it would be quieter.
