[ANN] News Reader Stack Available

[Sarah]

Hi Scott,

I love it! Every morning I check out the  latest MacCentral headlines 
and your interface provides a really clean, quick and easy way to do 
it. Thanks very much.

Browsing through your scripts (always on the lookout for good 
techniques), I noticed that you start object names with an underline 
and don't put them in quotes. Have you had any problems with this? I am 
always most careful to quote all object names, but your scripts look 
very neat. The major disadvantage that I can see would be that 
double-clicking can't select the entire name. Has anyone else any 
thoughts on the wisdom or otherwise of quoting all names?

Cheers,
Sarah
