frequently masked questions

First entry here in forever--I'm reading CS Lewis space trilogy, Out of the Silent Planet, Perelandra and That Hideous Strength, in reverse order. Also, Amy Tan's Saving Fish from Drowning, tho' reading that at the library, between computer sessions.  

GJ is so messed up, you only get notifications in your email, even though you have notices to go to your notices page. They are never there. Also, you used to get 2000 icons--though I've never had more than about 800, which was too many. But unless you make frequent entries or login regularly, they disappear.

It's not their fault, though, it's probably various hackers, worms, viruses. But it drives one a bit nutto!
