Well, NOTES kept (keeps) whole discussions in one file, and expires a
discussion at a time.

Not a bad idea, although some discussions, like the aquaria one, get so
huge that you might get a great eater of disk space.

And I know Eric said that TMN was going to keep pointers to the CHILDREN
in parent articles, in addition to the reverse we already have.

All in all this would not be too hard, although you have to change the
file format of history to do it.  It should have room for some flags.
